Content creator and comedian Flaqo, whose real name is Erastus Ayieko Otieno, has explained why he took back a car from his ex-girlfriend, Keranta.

He clarified that the car was legally registered in his name, pushing back against claims that he "snatched" it from her.

“A car is a convenience gift to my girlfriend, not to my ex. Once there’s an ex, it means there’s no car,” Flaqo explained.

Flaqo said he dislikes confrontation and even left one of his fully-furnished houses for Keranta.

He reasoned that while asking for the fridge would be petty, the car was a different matter.
