I remember telling Sanaipei I don’t want to commit, but please have a baby for me – Maina Kageni confesses

Away from the radio airwaves, Maina Kageni stands as one of the most acclaimed aging bachelors in Kenya.

The Classic 105 radio presenter who co-hosts with the popular Mwalimu King’ang’i, is known to side with women regardless of the topic of discussion.

Probably just his signature in the Breakfast show. But if there is one thing he is known for, is his fear of marriages and relationships that need commitment.

Engaging fans in a Q&A on YouTube, Maina confessed he does believe in the institution of marriage but probably not meant for the likes of him.

Yes, I believe in the marriage institution, but marriage is not for everyone.

Avril or Sanaipei Tande?

Talking of marriage and relationships, a fan asked the radio personality to pick his crush between songbirds, Avril or Sanaipei Tande.

Answering:

Avril I love you so much, you are beautiful but Sanaipei you are sexy and so beautiful.

Well, Maina and Sanaipei go way back, when they co-hosted shows on Kiss FM before she left for the music art.

Sanaipei is like music to his heart, recalling how he even tried indirectly proposing to her but she instead took it lightly.

Sanaa you are sexy and you sing like hell. Lemme say this here, we worked together on Kiss FM and I remember one day I made an indecent proposal.

Maina wanted to father Sanaipei’s kid but that was not her kind of vibe, his proposal never bore fruit.

I remember telling Sana, I don’t want a relationship with you, but please have a baby for me. When I made that joke, I was serious but she used to joke around it, ooo Sanaipei aliundwa on a Sunday.

Shying off:

I hope she is not watching.

Next question was just a notch higher, asking Maina whether he ever locked lips with the bewitching beauty.

Straightforward:

Deep.

Profession

Maina is undoubtedly a Radio King and a polished one at that, having graced couple of generations who came and left. Jus’ sayin…

Despite his dream to become a ‘learned friend’, he found himself behind the mic and has done so like he was built for it.

The day I will wake up and feel that I am going to work, I will call it a wrap because for me, I’m always excited with what I’m doing.

So passionate and engrossed is he with the work he does, that:

Sometimes I even wake up before my alarm. I mean, radio has nourished me for so long.
