THE FUNNY SIDE OF A MONSTER

The January of year 2020 marked a new era in human history after a new epidemic broke out in China. Corona virus quickly was announced as a world pandemic. Chaos rose in the China as well as other parts of the world especially in Chinese based destinations. As panic continued to thrash most countries, Kenya was not left behind but it was not that fast.

Kenyans normally known to criticize, draw conclusions, make jokes out of all situations usually through social media platforms and some even rushing to studios to record and produce songs did just their norm. Proffesor Hamo, a stand-up comedian in the Churchill Show made a joke about Kenyans being carefree and don't cares(mang'aa). As he explains on how Kenyans are hard-headed, he cites the instance when doctors went to diagnose the 239 passengers from China mask free while the passengers themselves had face masks. check out the full video on Youtube...

On the other side, Kenya online comedian(memelords) have been doing their best in easing the tension among Kenyans by creating meme relating to corona virus. One of the images compares corona virus with the locust invasion at the same time clarifying it has no place in Kenya.

Although most Kenyans especially between below 35 years seem unmoved by the pandemic, another group is concerned while taking all necessary precautions. One Shii Njenga through her twitter page expressed her fear and urged the government to make sure Kenyans are "safe in their poverty". Taxi drivers wear even face masks whenever dealing with Chinese citizens.

Personally, I think the nature of Kenyans being carefree in all situations is the energy pushing us to the limit and giving us a reason to live everyday. Moreover, memes never bore. On the other hand we need to take necessary precautions to avoid the spread of the virus but that does not mean harassing the Chinese citizens like from the viral video from Kibra last week.
