Kiss 100 radio presenter Kamene Goro has shared details of how a friend duped her at her hour of need after refusing to refund cash meant for a medical procedure.

This she revealed to her co-host Jalango during the Morning Kiss.

'It was around March and things had gotten tough.

A friend of mine approached me and told me of a project he had but he told me he was short of Ksh 150,000.

He requested of I could lend him the cash which he would then return in two weeks time with an interest.

The money would come back as 500K.'

Kamene added that since she was not immediately using the cash she agreed, a mistake she regrets to date.

'I had put the cash aside to go through a medical procedure which was in two weeks time.

I went to my account, withdrew the cash and gave it to my friend. 

I never got the money back.

Two weeks came and I had to go through the procedure but even to the moment I was getting into the hospital, nothing came.

Even to the moment I was getting into the hospital, nothing.'

One thing I have learnt is that money can easily create enemity so be very careful who you trust with your cash.

What's that one thing a friend has ever done to betray you?
