Kenyan content creator Sheryl Cherono Gabriella has found herself at the centre of online debate after appealing to Kenyans for financial support following the death of her father.
The appeal comes shortly after she had publicly spoken about her earnings online and responded to critics who compared her lifestyle to girls they considered “broke.”
Now, following the loss of her father, Sheryl is asking for support to give him a decent send-off, but the response online has been mixed, with some Kenyans revisiting her earlier remarks.
For many, it has become a reminder that life can change unexpectedly, and circumstances can humble anyone.
Whatever one's opinions about Sheryl's past choices or statements, this is still a family mourning the loss of a loved one.
May her father, Joseph Mutai, rest in peace. 🕊️
