Allegations Rock the CEO’s Reputation
Today, however, Wairatu finds himself at the center of a cheating scandal. He is accused of having an affair with a light-skinned woman identified as Nancy—who has since gone public with shocking details of their relationship.
In an explosive online post, Nancy, who claims to be a close friend of Wairatu’s wife, shared intimate photos and WhatsApp chats allegedly exposing the affair. According to Nancy, the CEO had promised her financial support, including a new car, only to ghost her when she was facing eviction due to unpaid rent.
