Andrew Kibe Goes At Kikuyu Men Named After Their Mothers: "Wanjiru, Njoki Change It"

• Controversial content creator Andrew Kibe noted that some Kikuyu men are named after their mothers, saying it is wrong
• He noted that men should not embrace such names emphasising that those named after their mothers should drop the names
• Kibe said that feminine names are reserved for women, and Kikuyu men should be given masculine names

Andrew Kibe has taken a swing at Kikuyu men named after their mother's maiden names.

Kibe slams Kikuyu men

With his signature rogue charm, Kibe firmly asserted that men who carry their mothers' names should consider a rapid rebranding.

The self-proclaimed voice of reason and opinion went on to elaborate on the necessity of a name change for men in a video shared on Twitter by @kafangi.

He urged men to trace their roots and adopt a name that screams their dad’s lineage.

Kibe said:

"Kama unaitwa jina ya mamako, change it," (If you're named after your mother consider changing the name).

Adding:

"Change hiyo jina. Tafuta jina ya mwanaume. Go as far as you need. Go look for a man and not just any man, but ones from your dad's side."

He suggested some men should adopt his name Kibe if they fail to trace their paternal roots.

Recalling his own misadventure, Kibe regaled his listeners with a tale of contacting someone named Njoki, only to be perplexed it was a man on the other end.

"Huwezi endelea kujiita Wanjiru. Unaitwaje Njoki?" Kibe posed.

The viral video elicited reactions from netizens, and below are some of their comments:

Kikuyu men told to wear good perfume

Separately, a man called out Kikuyu men, who are usually hell-bent on making money but hardly ever spend it on themselves.

Collins Wanderi noted with concern how most men focus on saving for the future at the expense of giving themselves some good grooming.

In a lengthy Facebook post, Wanderi said:

"Life is not all about land, the pursuit of money, mburoti maguta maguta (cheap land), constructing buildings, cows, goats and investing for your children. Spend your time, energy, and resources to thank yourself too."

Wanderi added:

"Buy that designer suit and wear some good perfume. Have some fun, and tour the world beyond Mûrang'a, Kîambu, and Nairobi. It is sad that some of our wealthy people only acquire a passport and a visa for the first time to travel to India for medical reasons, only to return weak or in cold boxes. Such is vanity and waste of life."
