Brian Chira’s death
Police confirmed the death of the TikToker, stating that he succumbed to severe head injuries sustained in the hit-and-run incident.
Before the accident, reports suggest that the deceased had visited a bar in the Gacharae area where he was later ejected following a disturbance.
On his way home by motorcycle, he was struck by a speeding lorry while crossing the road near his destination. The lorry fled the scene after the collision.
Law enforcement arrived promptly, relocating his body to the City Mortuary where grieving fans and family members gathered for a final viewing.
Support poured in from various quarters on social media, offering condolences to the bereaved family.
Fellow TikToker Nyako expressed her sorrow, reflecting on her significant role in the deceased’s life and urging followers to reflect on their own journeys and final moments.
Chira, who had gained rapid popularity on TikTok, had recently taken a hiatus from social media, prompting concerns about his well-being.
In a previous statement, he reassured fans that he was simply taking time off to focus on self-improvement after a rough period.
“I just took a break from a year of chaos. I’m fine. Hang in there. It’s not every day that’s a trending day. I had to work on myself and I feel better now,” he had said in a post on Instagram.
