Mean trolls savage Kiengei’s wife
Guka wa Nairobi, Muthee Kiengei, the Kameme FM breakfast show presenter, posted pictures of his son’s fifth birthday, on Facebook and World War II almost broke out in the comments section of one of the pictures.
The picture has Kiengei’s beautiful wife alongside two other ladies with heavy make-up on. It is the make-up that became the topic of intense debate and discussion in the comment section. By the time of writing this piece, the picture alone had attracted more than 1,400 comments, most of them negative.
The trolling directed at Kiengei’s wife was, to say the least savage, if not entirely malicious. The commenters, most of them women sarcastically termed the make-up worn by Kiengei’s wife as Mothokinjo Paints. What a mean thing to say.
Others resorted to body-shaming, using fallen soldiers to refer to her breasts, which they claimed were sagging.
War almost broke out when Kiengei’s supporters took on the trolls and body shamers. They noted that most of the trolls were fellow women, a thing that reinforces the notion that women are their own worst enemies.
Regarding the alleged sagging breasts, the body shamers were challenged to table their own mammary glands so that comparisons can be made. They noted quite correctly that bo***es, once suckled tend to sag, which is nothing to be ashamed of.
There was also the odd reference to Kiengei’s ex-wife Keziah, with some trying to compare the two women. Still mean by any standards.
A closer look at the pictures however, reveals that the pictures were taken at night, hence there was poor lighting. That explains why the photos had a dark hue about them. What this mean is the photographer had to rely on flash to clear the pictures.
Any photographer who has ever done night-time photography, especially outdoors, knows it is a tricky proposition.
Reading through the comments one couldn’t help but note that the mean and salty ones come from envious women challenged by Kiengei’s wife’s grace and beauty. This was a rare opportunity for them to savage her in order to feel good about their miserable existence.
One thing is clear though, Kiengei does not suffer fools easily and will most likely launch an epic comeback. It is just a matter of time.
