Before the demos on Wednesday, some Gen Zs shared worrying messages on social media, sparking mixed reactions.
Mwajuma urges Gen Zs to show up for protests
Mwajuma is among the Gen Zs who went viral after sending messages to mortician Ann Mwangangi via TikTok.
The TikTok user urged her fellow Gen Zs to turn up for the maandamano as she made a personal request to Ann.
"Hi guys. Tomorrow, let us show up at the Nairobi CBD. Then I want to request Ann — when I get to the mortuary, please put me in a nearby drawer because I am a Muslim. My mum said to put me in a nearby drawer so that when Muslims come to look for my body, they can easily find me," she said, sitting next to her visibly surprised mother.
Her mother asked what she was talking about, and Mwajuma clarified that she was referring to the protests.
How much would Mwajuma's mum be paid if she died?
Mwajuma tried to convince her mum that she would be paid at least KSh 2 million by President William Samoei Ruto if she died while protesting.
Her shocked mother was not having it and reached for her sandal to discipline her daughter.
"Let me find you in Maandamano — you will know who I am," Mwajuma's angry mother warned as she pointed her sandal at her daughter.
When Mwajuma tried to speak about the protests again, her mum raised her hand, sandal in hand, ready to strike, but Mwajuma quickly escaped.
Netizens react to Mwajuma's TikTok video
Social media users were thrilled by the apparent skit, flooding the comment section with reactions:
Maggie Njeri Irungu:
"Siku hizi Waluya wamekuwa Waislamu sasa... vile wanapenda kula huwa wanajifunga kweli."
Kelvin Isolio:
"Weeh, hiyo ID ya huyo mkora ficha! 2027 sitaki kumwona kwa line ya election atatuangusha huyo."
Lyzer CML:
"Tulieni, kila mtu atapata fridge yake 🤣🤣🤣 lakini mimi mniachie hiyo iko karibu na socket pale kwa Ann Mwangangi."
Dominic:
"Husikii nimetishiwa kufungiwa siku mzima kwa nyumba nikatoroka saizi, nikaribisheni sleepover guys."

"Wacha kubumbaza watu waende maandamano wakufe, na wewe mwenyewe uko ushago."
