Brian Kuira, a Twitter user who claims to be a blogger, has faced criticism for his comments on weaves. According to the original account, Kuira spent the better part of his morning commenting on a blog, yet nobody forced him to read it.
Kuira's comments were met with a proposal from his peers for a sit-down with his elders, due to showing signs of an infection known as "verbal-diarrhoea."
Evidence and Context ¶
The original account states that small-time bloggers like Kuira often imagine that throwing shade at established bloggers will validate their lives. However, the account argues that this approach is misguided and that Kuira's comments on weaves were particularly problematic.
The account suggests that not all weaves are bad, but rather that certain types, such as flashy and dramatic ones, may be indicative of a person's character. The account cites Vera Sidika's hairstyle as an example of this type of weave.
Response and Consequences ¶
The original account argues that Kuira's comments were misplaced and that he should focus on improving his own blog rather than criticizing others. The account also suggests that women who wear weaves should be celebrated for their efforts to style their hair, as long as hygiene is observed.
Furthermore, the account criticizes certain individuals, including Caroline Mutoko and Sheila Mwanyigha, for preaching standards to younger women while allegedly neglecting their own personal hygiene. The account suggests that these individuals should partner with companies to promote the use of roll-on and deodorants.
The account concludes by emphasizing the importance of hygiene, particularly for women, and suggests that a movement to improve hygiene in Kenya could be supported by corporates who manufacture related products.
