“Weka Msalaba” Kenyans Criticize A Man Who Built A House Resembling A Church

A man has become an online sensation after posting a viral photo, calling on Kenyans on Twitter to be lenient with him after he received negative backlash for a design house he had built for his parents.

The individual known only as Daggy used his Twitter account to vent his resentment, saying that Kenyans should recognize his efforts rather than criticize them despite all the work he had put into finishing the project.

The online community had descended on him, castigating him and calling on him to be realistic because what he had developed resembled a church. A user identified as Edinson questioned him for creating a structure that resembled a PCEA Limuru church, while another user called the building the Karurumo AIC church. Another user posed a question to him about whether this was indeed not a church, especially given the design of the entrance. “Weka Msalaba’ one fan named Mwangi posed.

The remarks did not sit well with the man, who claimed that his followers were trolling the newly constructed structure rather than sending him congratulations messages, despite saving to the last coin to realize this dream.

 “You sacrifice Sherehe, reject the slay queen’s temptations, save to the last coin, and build a house for your family. Upon completion, you share it on social media expecting congratulation messages  only for Kenyans to show you ” nice Church comments,” read the tweet.

Others advised him to avoid seeking validation from strangers and instead try to win quietly because not everyone enjoys seeing others triumph.
