Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen has claimed that the BBC Eye documentary, "MADAMS: Exposing Kenya's Child Sex Trade," might be flawed, alleging subjects were promised substantial payments and benefits to participate. He stated that ministry investigations suggest some witnesses fabricated their age and connections for monetary gain.

• Murkomen appeared before Parliament on Wednesday, August 13, to discuss the documentary's legitimacy.
• Four women allegedly disclosed that BBC contacted them to find vulnerable girls for a fictitious foreign sponsorship programme.
• Murkomen claims the two women portrayed as child traffickers were promised significant sums and have since relocated to unknown locations, urging the exposé to be considered fake.
