Kenyan TikToker @beatricekinuthia recently stirred an online conversation with her advice to popular comedienne Dem wa Facebook, following the latter’s impressive gesture of building her parents a house. Beatrice congratulated Dem wa Facebook for her noble act but cautioned her against publicly sharing future plans, suggesting that not everyone around her might have good intentions.
Dem wa Facebook’s Generous Gift
Dem wa Facebook stunned many after unveiling a house she built for her parents in Kitale during a grand ceremony. The event also saw her promise to buy her father a car, earning cheers and applause from the gathered crowd.
While many lauded her efforts, Beatrice Kinuthia shared a different perspective on TikTok. She urged Dem wa Facebook to avoid publicly revealing her goals before achieving them, as this might attract envy and negativity.
TikToker’s Advice Sparks Debate
In her TikTok video, Beatrice said:
“Do not share your vision in front of villagers before you do them. They will be shut down. Not everyone who came to your meeting and clapped for you loves you. Some are people whose kids you schooled with but never succeeded. Some of us are stuck because we spoke before.”
She further added that in today’s world, people often attribute success to loans to deter others from sabotaging their progress.
Mixed Reactions from Netizens
Beatrice’s comments sparked mixed reactions online. While some netizens agreed with her advice, others believed Dem wa Facebook’s achievements were divinely protected.
- @rocks: “Privacy is power. She doesn’t know.”
- @Mo: “Whatever door God has opened, nobody can close.”
- @cherono: “This girl is anointed. Wachawi walikuwa hapo, and there is nothing they could do.”
- @maisymirriam: “Let’s minimise advising people. Dem wa FB knows what she’s doing.”
A Testament to Accountability
Dem wa Facebook’s father, a pastor, also garnered praise for his financial discipline during the house project. He shared how he resisted using construction funds for personal needs, even when the family faced challenges. His commitment won the admiration of many who related it to their own experiences with parents mishandling project funds.
A Lesson in Gratitude and Discretion
Dem wa Facebook’s remarkable act of gratitude towards her parents has inspired countless Kenyans. However, the advice from Beatrice Kinuthia highlights the need for discretion, particularly in a society where success often draws both praise and envy.
As Dem wa Facebook continues to support her family, her story reminds others of the importance of accountability, resilience, and perhaps a little privacy when pursuing their dreams.
