Nairobi, Kenya – Brian Chira’s grandmother recently found herself at the center of a social media storm after a heated exchange during a TikTok live stream. The incident unfolded when a curious viewer questioned her about her grandson’s father, leading to a fiery confrontation.
Background: The Fundraiser and Accusations
Brian Chira, a popular TikToker, tragically passed away, and his funeral arrangements became a focal point for Kenyans. The community rallied together, raising a substantial KSh 8 million to support the family. Spearheading this effort was Baba Talisha, who garnered praise for his role in organizing the fundraiser.

The tension escalated as the elderly woman responded, “There is Ian’s dad who came out saying Ian is not an orphan. We know as humans we make mistakes at times. He said that he buys you food and pays your rent and he is not a sponsor.” The revelation left viewers stunned, and the live stream abruptly ended1.
Emotional Fallout
