Media personality Jeff Koinange has put his Mercedes G-Wagon on sale. He is offloading the luxury ride at a throw away price.
The news anchor who is famous for his JKL news segment rides in a unique Mercedes G class which is left-handed unlike most Kenyan cars and against the Kenyan road laws.
The celebrated anchor posted a video in 2019 on his social media pages announcing an upcoming event dubbed Country Music and his high-end ride was also featured in the clip.

Taking to Twitter, lawyer Ahmednasir Abdullahi wondered why the anchor was driving a left-hand drive car in Kenya explaining that the country's laws were clear against the importation of similar cars since motorists drive on right-side lanes on Kenyan roads.
“Jeff's car is left-hand drive... I thought we have a legal prohibition on such imports...or is Jeff's a special case?” posed the lawyer.
