TIKTOKER Brian Chira died not long ago, which was terrible for his 317,000 followers.
Here is what we know about the Kenyan star whose videos were known for being funny and fun.
What did Brian Chira do?
He was born in Kiambu, Kenya, on July 6, 1996, and was a TikToker.
His career took off after one of his videos, called “witness,” which showed off his bubbly personality, went viral.
The City Celeb says Brian could make $722 per TikTok live.
He also got a lot of attention when he told everyone that he had HIV.
He told K24: “How I got HIV is still a story I get difficulties talking about, I’ve never talked about it, in fact, this is an exclusive you’re getting.”
His story was about how he was invited to a fancy party in Mombasa and took a bus to get there like everyone else.
He said he got there early and needed to find a place to hang out before the party started.
He then said that a man at the party had sexually assaulted him.
Another thing that the star is known for is getting into trouble. He was in a fight over allegedly making defamatory comments about the famous TikToker Azziad Nasenya.
Where did Brian Chira go?
Brain Chira died after being hit by a car that didn’t stop.
The police say the accident happened around 3 a.m. on the Ndenderu-Ruaka Road in Kiambu County.
As part of their investigation into what happened, the police will do an autopsy on the body.
Also, they will go to places Chira had been before the accident.
Police are also looking into claims that Chira may have been drunk when the accident happened in the Gacharage area.
Pius Mwanthi, the police chief for Kiambaa sub-county, said they still haven’t found the truck that they think hit Chira.
“The accident happened at night, and right now people are trying to find the car that caused it.” “So far, no one has been caught,” he said.
He also said that surveillance cameras near the scene and along the road will be looked at by a team to help find the canter.
“The person who did this should also come forward and report it to help with the investigation,” he said.
At the time of the accident, Chira was riding home on a motorcycle with a friend.
Some of his family and friends went to the morgue and identified him.
It was said that the star’s head was badly hurt.
People who cared about him have been asked to help raise money so that he can be buried.
