Azziad Nasenya, a talented young actress, recently celebrated her 20th birthday amidst mixed reactions from the public.
On June 16, 2020, the TikTok queen announced her transition into adulthood, leaving her teenage years behind. However, not everyone seemed to believe she was 20, as evident from the trending hashtag #Azziad20 on Twitter.
Some netizens questioned her age, while others believed she was being truthful and looked exactly her age. The actress had earlier shared her joy at stepping into a new year, saying she was doing so with joy and confidence.
"Goodbye to my teenage years. Stepping into the future with joy and confidence. Blessed and favoured. #Azziad20 #HBDAzziad (sic)," she wrote.
As it seems, some thought she was much older than said, but there were those who believed she was being truthful. Here are some of the comments from the trending hashtag:
- "You look like you're 25, Azziad."
- "I don't believe you're 20, you look older."
- "You're being truthful, you look exactly your age."
Being born on the Day of the African Child, Azziad also marked her occasion with a beautiful skit video alongside former TPF judge Ian Mbugua. In the video, the 20-year-old was demanding access to child-friendly justice systems in Africa.
