Former radio host Andrew Kibe's YouTube channel with over 400k Subscribers has been delated by the YouTube Management.
The Kenyan who lives in the US has not yet acknowledged the loss of his account.
The strike according to a screenshot seen by Kiss100 indicates that, "the YouTube account associated with this video has been terminated," read the announcement.
Andrew Kibe has for some time been notifying his legion of fans that once he is done with YouTube, he will upload his content on another platform.
While this may be a different case now, it will be interesting to see what he says about his YouTube account.
