Public uproar has erupted after a Somali content creator was hit by a bus while filming content at the Muthaiga underpass.

The teenage boy was rushed to the hospital and pronounced clinically dead due to serious injuries sustained from the accident.

In a viral video circulated online on November 25, 2025,” the boy was seen attempting a risky challenge involving dodging oncoming cars.

The Somali boy walked a few metres towards the direction the bus was coming from, gave a high five to his colleague, they were shooting the content together, and turned his body to the direction the bus was moving to, and was hit by the bus.

How Kenyans Reacted to the Incident

Nevin4, one of X users, shifted the blame to the bus driver for hitting the boy intentionally, to justify the boy’s being on the wrong side of the street.

“How dare the driver just see a juvenile boy misbehaving and knock him to justify that the boy was on the wrong side. This needs investigation! K,” Nevin4 wrote on X.

According to a Between Two Worlds X user, this incident has something to do with an ethnic attack on the Somali community online.

The X influencer further urged accusers of Somali people to leave them to have freedom to express themselves on content, please.

“This has already been profiled as an ethnic attack on Somalia online…..let them have freedom of expressing themselves on content, please,” Between Two Worlds asserted.
