A male chess player registered to play in the Women's section of the Kenya Open Chess Championship as Millicent Awuor.  The ​Kenya Open is being held at Sarit Expo Centre in Nairobi from 6 - 10 April, 2023 with a top prize of Sh500,000 for the Women's section.

Organisers became suspicious of the player registered as Millicent Awuor following his results against Gloria Jumba, the former Kenya National Chess Champion, and Ampaira Shakira, Uganda's top player.  It was reported by Daily Nation online that to keep his identity hidden, the player, whose real name is Stanley Omondi covered his head and face completely.  Additionally, he wore sunglasses on the small opening that revealed his eyes. 
 
He was expelled from the tournament by organisers pending disciplinary action.
