The digital community has been left mourning the sudden loss of Brian Chira, a raising TikTok star who attracted plenty of followers with his engaging content and vibrant personality.

The life of the 23-year-old social media sensation was cut short after he had been involved in a hit-and-run accident in Karuri, Kiambu County on March 16th, 2024.

His untimely passing shocked many Kenyans as well as followers from every corner on Earth.

As reported by Standard Mediathe young Kenyan was spending the night at a popular restaurant in Gacharage together with a friend, but the two were asked to leave the place for causing disturbance and being drunk, allegedly.

When he left the resort, he got on a motorcycle together with his friend and just as they reached the Gacharage roundabout, Chira asked to be taken home. As they passed the service lane towards Ruaka bit heading towards Ndenderu on the wrong side, Chira alighted from the motorcycle and ran towards the main road when he was struck by a white canter that failed to make a stop.

It was reported that Chira’s lifeless body was picked up around 4 am at Ambassador along Western Bypass (Ndenderu – Ruaka stretch).

Chira’s funeral was attended by a huge crowd, which stunned the organizers who were forced to set more seats and tents. The members of the “Chira Clan,” as they referred to themselves, paid their tributes to the late Internet sensation and even contributed to the funeral expenses, raising over $60,000.

Speaking to BBCone of the organizers of Chira’s funeral, Faustine Lukale, who goes by the name Baba Talisha on social media, said, “These were just random TikTokers, no-one really mobilised them. We actually thought they were attending another burial in the neighbourhood.”
