Skandals Kibao (English: Full of Scandals) is a Kenyan soap opera that debuted on KTN in August 2015. It is directed by Mary Migui. The main cast includes; Lwanda Jawar, George Mo, Vincent Mbaya, Billiard Wanjau, Janet Sision and Avril.
Four friends John, Maxwell, Kingsley and George decide to have a bachelor's party a night before John's wedding to his girlfriend Christine (Janet Sision). They engage in taking heavy illicit drugs; they get high on them. The following day, when they are sober, they realize that John has not awaken; he has succumbed to the drugs. Christine is waiting for her groom but then she decides to call off the wedding. Later that day, the three friends see a homeless man named Joe on television. He is suffering from amnesia and is in appearance identical to John. They convince Joe to impersonate John, they believing that at least he will have shelter. A series of lies, deceit, envy and greed follows.
It is produced by Lwanda Jawar and directed by Mary Migui. Filming is done entirely in Nairobi.
Skandals Kibao premiered on KTN from August 16, 2015. It aired on Sundays at 8 pm but later moved to Tuesday 8 pm to pave the time slot to Ultimate Weight Challenge.
