Mkamburi Chigogo warns women to avoid men who want to be taken care of
Radio personality Mkamburi Chigogo has advised women to avoid men who rely on them for financial support or prefer to be “taken care of” in relationships.
Speaking on her radio show on Monday, October 13, 2025, Mkamburi said there has been a growing trend where some men, especially in Mombasa, want to be financially supported by their age mates instead of working hard for themselves.

According to her, this behaviour has sparked concerns among many women who feel that some men have abandoned their traditional roles and responsibilities. “Na kumekua na malalamishi sana. Wadada wanalalamika kweli, wapo live live kwamba wanaume wa Mombasa wanataka kulelewa na age mates wao, wanawake,” Mkamburi said.
She noted that most of the complaints have come from a specific area in Mombasa County, where men have been described as lazy and too comfortable with being supported by women. Mkamburi added that such men have become what she called “ultimate princesses,” preferring an easy life instead of working for their own success.

She calls out men who compete with women
Mkamburi went on to question the behaviour of men who constantly expect special treatment from women or act entitled to their attention and resources. “Mimi sijui kama ni kweli lakini kitu naweza kuambia, unapatana na mtu anakwambia it is his birthday. First of all, you as a man, what business do you have telling a woman it is your birthday?” she asked.
She expressed disappointment in men who, according to her, seek to compete with women instead of taking up their responsibilities. “My God, I would be so disgusted. That is some disgusting behaviour. Women, when you see such a man, just run. Men who want to compete with women, please steer clear of such men. Waepuke,” she said.
Mkamburi said that women should value themselves and avoid men who only bring emotional or financial burden. She said women deserve partners who are responsible and hardworking, not those who look for relationships as a source of comfort or survival.
Her message, she added, is not to shame men but to remind women to protect their worth and avoid relationships built on dependency.
