Car dealer Khalif Kairo found himself on the defense against Kenyans on X (KOX) after attempting to sell a written-off car. Subsequently, he offered a million shillings to any customer who bought a car from his dealership and later realized that it was faulty or that was in an accident.
“I will offer KES 1,000,000. To any customer who can come forward and say he/she imported a car from @kai_and_karo and found that its an accident car or has major defect. If you know them. Tell them to Quote this tweet and claim their 1 Million.”

Kairo Exposed
Blogger Cyprian Nyakundi initially exposed Kairo’s attempt to sell an eight-million-shilling car, revealing it had been in an accident and written off due to chassis structure damage.
“Popular Kenyan car dealer Khalif Kairo under fire for attempting to sell a damaged Ford Mustang (5.0 V8 GT Fastback Euro 6 2dr) from the UK for Ksh8m but social media users searched the plate number of the car and found its history on British dealerships like AutoTrader and Car Vertical in the CAT (S) salvage category previously written off for structural blow to the chassis.”

Khalif Kairo Apologizes
Subsequently, Khalif Kairo apologized for the oversight and added that Kai and Karo quality assurance team would have ultimately realized the mistake before selling the car.
“About the Mustang post, again mistakes happen. We cannot possibly verify all cars before we post ju sisi hueka many cars a day. Hapo please forgive us for the small mistake and should you have enquired on the car. The mistake would still have been detected by quality.”
Kairo stated.
