Governor Johnson Sakaja kicked off the celebrations, and Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua attended the final day of the festivities on Sunday, December 17. Despite a significant security presence, a viral clip has shown how thieves targeted an unsuspecting victim. The footage showed young people enjoying Christina Shusho’s Shusha Nyavu hit. The young lady, wearing a green and white college jacket, sought to capture the moment on her phone. She removed it from her pocket before switching on the selfie camera. No sooner had she started recording herself than someone grabbed it, leading to a commotion. Netizens reacted by saying: @carltonkitheka1: “Poor girl didn’t even know what hit her.” @IamBilser: “Red T-shirt, white hat to a white T-shirt. A whole gang in place.” @iano_kemei: “In the blink of an eye, the phone changed ownership.” @LemmyGunga: “I would never set foot where many people from the ghetto are gathered- it is usually chaotic. Call me ignorant, but I would never set foot in the ghetto.” @Rhymenosorous “Mission accomplished. That’s indeed the vibe of the city.” @__mercynjoroge: “And he didn’t even move. That was so quick.” @official_kemboi: “I feel sorry for the poor little girl.”
