Move over ‘Githeri man’, here comes ‘sukuma wiki woman’
Yet another ordinary Kenyan has turned herself into an online celebrity for a picture that captured her in an unbelievably calm poise amidst mayhem.
In the picture that has since gone viral, the woman is seen holding a bundle of sukuma wiki while crossing the road even as an anti-riot police officer clutching a button charging at two men who seem to be desperately trying to flee.
The only thing that betrays the woman’s awareness of the dangerous situation she is caught up in is her defiant facial expression.
This comes after 41-year-old Martin Kamotho became an online sensation after a photo showing him eating gatheri while waiting in a queue to vote was widely shared on social media.
Here is the sukuma wiki woman famous picture and the comments it attracted from netizens.
