A Kenyan woman, Choice Kinoti, opened up after private videos of her with a Russian man, Yaytseslav Truhov, were leaked online. She shared her side of the story to clarify what happened and address speculation about her HIV status. She explained that her relationship with the Russian man started normally, with him cooking and filming everyday activities, before she discovered his ulterior motives
Choice explained that she and the man had been dating and that he often filmed their daily activities, including cooking and cleaning together. Initially, she did not notice anything suspicious, as the relationship seemed normal. She even washed his clothes and cooked for him, which drew criticism online, but she said it was a gesture of reciprocity. The story comes after 20-year-old Lerato Molwelang went viral when she reported being exploited in a fake modeling audition scam run by a man identified as Ivo Suzee. She alleged that what was advertised as a legitimate modeling job through platforms called 'African Casting' turned into explicit, non-consensual sexual recordings.

Later, she discovered that he had been filming private encounters and confronted him about it. She admitted the situation shocked her but stressed that all their interactions had been protected. Her father, a lecturer, had given her guidance on sexual health before she went to campus, which helped her make safe choices.

“She actually speaks better and more fluently than in the clips shown, which makes the accusations of the guy seem possible. The guy probably posted clips to fit a certain narrative. Sending hugs and healing—go and sin no more.”
