It’s a blessing for Chira’s family as well-wishers could contribute 5 million shillings that will cater for his funeral expenses.

Chira died in a hit-and-run accident on March 16th.

Baba Talisha, one of the founders of the fundraising campaign, shared a screenshot showing the amount contributed within 48 hours.

The screenshot revealed that a total of Ksh 5 million was contributed.

On Thursday, some internet users suggested that the money collected from a fundraiser should be used to build a decent house for Chira’s grandmother. 

This suggestion was made after a TikToker named King Roso offered to cover Chira’s funeral expenses, which amounted to Sh850,000.

Roso suggested that all the money that will be fundraised through the ongoing fundraising will go towards building Chira’s grandmother a better house.

At the same time, another TikToker has volunteered to fund Brian Chira’s cousin’s school fees after being left stranded. Before his untimely demise, Chira was said to be sponsoring his cousin’s education.

“Now you have gotten a sponsor. You have found someone who will educate you, and he is in the US. He will pay for your education,” he said as he warmly embraced the little boy.

Chira’s cousin could not help but smile at the fantastic news as he shyly looked down while holding his jacket.

“Work hard until you go to the US,” MC Chris encouraged the young boy, who could not stop smiling after the news.

Chira’s grandmother made a special request for her grandson’s burial. 

She asked that he be buried in his graduation gown because he was an intelligent student during his school years.

Chira had not yet graduated from Kabarak University, where he was studying. 

He attended Nkubu High School for his secondary education, and his classmates remember him as a bright student.

Chira will be buried on Tuesday, 26th March 2024 in Githunguri.

“Chira will be buried in his graduation gown. This was his grandmother’s request. He was a bright student, he got an A-,” Baba Talisha informed.
