In an emotional tribute to the late TikToker Brian Chira, his grandmother has officially moved into a new home built in his honor by Brian Chira’s Tiktok clan.
The house, named “Chira Clan” after the community of fans Brian loved, was funded by generous TikTokers who contributed over Sh7 million.
Brian Chira’s grandmother recently held a housewarming ceremony to celebrate this new chapter. The move comes after she faced eviction from her previous rental home.
She shared that the large crowd at Brian’s burial led her landlord to give her an eviction notice, feeling overwhelmed by the number of visitors. “We were given about two weeks’ notice,” she said.
“I don’t know how he interpreted the large crowd at the burial. So, we built this house in two months while also being evicted from the other place.“
As she settles into her new home, she has asked Kenyans to keep her in their prayers. This new house represents not just a fresh start but a heartfelt tribute to Brian Chira, who tragically passed away in a road accident on March 16, 2024.
According to police reports, Brian was struck by a speeding car after a night out at a bar in Gacharage. He was reportedly involved in a commotion and was subsequently forced out of the bar.
He later took a motorcycle home, alighted, and was crossing the road on foot when the accident occurred.
Brian Chira’s grandma shared a heartfelt message and touching message to the TikTok community saying, “Mimi tu ni kushukuru. Hata nashindwa na vile mmefanya. Lakini kile nasema na Tiktok, mbarikiwe sana na Mungu na ikue tu mnanipigia simu niskie imetoka kwa fulani. Nawapenda sana.“
Adding, “Na muwe mnakuja kunitembelea. Mnaona vile nyumba iko kubwa. Ikona pande ya wasichana na wavulana.”
The house was festively decorated with balloons for the grand opening, and TikTokers, including Obidan Dela, attended the celebration. Obidan Dela was very instrumental and determined to honor Chira’s legacy in rallying for TikTokers to contribute for the good cause.
He then went ahead to stream the full video on his YouTube Channel detailing the beautiful house.
