Vyacheslav Trahov, a Russian man, is well on his way to getting his name etched on the Guinness Book of World Records. The man who plies his lascivious trade on the streets and his apartment will definitely not earn that dream on account of any lofty project, but on the intricate and crafty way he lures African women, both married and unmarried, to warm his bed. But he has earned the bragging rights to be named another Baltasar Engonga.
And he does that with a kind of finesse while, at the same time, giving men some tutorials on how to “spin and catch” women so easily without spending a dime or going through any hassles.
At the moment, Trahov, whose name sounds like a tractor, has bulldozed thousands of Kenyan and Ghanaian women while on visits to both countries. Some say he makes a living from showing how easy it is for him to sleep with African women.
Trahov has, by virtue of the unique way he seduces women, earned the epithet, “Come With Me.” And he achieves his insidious intent by simply accosting a woman on the street, at a shopping mall, or even in the market, saying hi to her or complimenting her dress.
After that introduction and gaining the woman’s attention, he will now introduce himself as a Russian with his thick Russian accent and poor English and exchange contact information with his would-be prey. And the defences of the women, already flabbergasted and enamoured of the white man, will be weakened.
Then the man will say the magic word, the open sesame, “Come with me.” And the rest, they say, will be history. Either the ladies will follow him immediately, or he will invite them to his rented Air BNB’S and sleep with them.
However, the intriguing thing about Trahov’s escapades is that he does not discriminate, maybe partly owing to the fact that he does not have high taste or he is unrepentantly crass, tacky, and vulgar. He is so acquiescent that any lady, whether short, tall, fat, thin, beautiful, or ugly, sophisticated or crude, is his spec.
And another strange thing about Trahov is that, unknown to the women, he records his encounters with them with a
Ray-Ban Meta Smart glasses and post them on social media platforms
The glasses look like ordinary sunglasses or prescription frames but are equipped with cameras, microphones, speakers, and AI technology, allowing users to discreetly capture photos and videos from their point of view.
Globally priced between $329 and $379, the eye-ware features a 12-megapixel camera, open-ear speakers, a five-microphone array, and a voice-activated Meta AI assistant. It also supports livestreaming to social media platforms and offers up to 32GB of storage.
Still, Trahov ‘s videos, which have all gone viral, are filled with stories about the women he has slept with. And he shares an uncanny similarity with Baltasar Engonga, the Equatorial Guinean man whose videos set the internet on fire in 2024.
In one of the videos, he approaches a yellow supermarket attendant at Quickmart in Nairobi, Kenya, “Hey, I like your dress, he says in his heavy Russian accent.
“Thanks,” the lady responds, smiling. Next thing, numbers are exchanged there and then. Then the same lady appears in Trahov ‘s apartment, smiling from jaw to jaw, ready to be explored.
In another video, he approaches a female security guard with the same lines, and she falls into the same trap as well. Explored again in the man’s apartment.
In yet another video, Trahov approaches a woman with three kids, and they exchange numbers. The lady leaves to drop her kids off with her husband, and the next thing she is in the man’s apartment, ready to be explored.
A video showing how a 300-level student of a prestigious university in Ghana, who is virtually standing on one leg, with the other hanging to allow easy passage, is also making the rounds on the internet.
Social media is currently awash with the shocks African men have expressed about what they feel is the scandalous ease with which the Russians have access to the women. Some say it, the Russians did it to show how cheap African women are. Others say white men who are into black women are playing the dating game on easy mode.
However, many will not agree with that sexist train of thought based on the argument that not all African women are the same. Some women with a sense of pride and self-esteem will not fall prey easily to any man, whether white, coloured, or black.
However, as Trahov’s videos continue to go viral and gain traction across the globe, they will certainly generate a huge debate on whether African women are cheap or not, or whether it’s not a racial thing but something common and natural with women across the globe, depending on the place, time, and circumstances. Still, that’s even sexist. But for now, your guess is as good as mine.
