Kenjivideos scandal

The Kenjivideos scandal is a political scandal that occurred in Peru in 2018, following the release of several videos filmed by MP Moisés Mamani showing opposition congressmen offering construction projects and special access to the presidency in order to help President Pedro Pablo Kuczynski avoid impeachment; this resulted in the resignation of Kuczynski.^[1]^[2]^[3]

The videos received the name of “Kenjivideos” because of the involvement of MP Kenji Fujimori and other members of his political party.
