Controversial Kenyan socialite Shakilla recently garnered online attention when images allegedly depicting her digitally manipulated appearance surfaced.
These photos, which Shakilla initially shared, showed an M-Pesa balance of approximately Sh300,000. As a result, a lot of people assumed from the screenshots that she was quite wealthy.
Shortly after sharing the screenshots on her social media platforms, speculations arose among users regarding the contents. The screenshots indicated that Goodluck Mbah had transferred a sum of Sh. 285,000 to Shakila.

One intriguing detail that caught the attention of the online community was the use of a lowercase "p" in "M-PESA" instead of the usual uppercase "M." This discrepancy led to a swift realization among social media users that the photo had been manipulated, and that the socialite had intentionally altered it to deceive her followers.
Twitter users have been urging the controversial socialite to address the inconsistency in her screenshot. They assert that since she had no difficulty sharing the information initially, she should have no problem setting the record straight. Some online commenters have gone as far as labelling the socialite a liar, which has disappointed her loyal followers.
Critics argue that her actions have an improper influence on the younger generation. They believe that many young individuals may feel pressured by their peers or the public on social media due to such posts.
Concerned about the potential negative impact of misleading content on her young social media followers, people urged Shakilla to exercise caution and avoid posting such material.
Shakilla has gained notoriety for her attention-grabbing publicity stunts on various social media platforms.
