Salty Kenyans Troll Achieng Agutu For Earning $50,000 On The Ellen Degeneres Show
Kenyans on Twitter cannot handle the fact that a Kenyan woman, and not them, went on an American show and did all it takes to earn $50,000 for her family. In the process, she also got to see her parents and brother after two years of separation.
Achieng Agutu, who is in school in the United States appeared on the widely famous The Ellen Degeneres Show, first as part of the audience and as a guest, where she talked about her Kenyan upbringing, how she ended up in the United States, the sacrifices her parents made to support her, and what she is doing to support herself.
In the show, Achieng Agutu made several claims. Her parents sold land to take her to school. She learned some English by watching artists perform on Ellen and searched their lyrics. She has five jobs; counselor, an Uber driver, a teacher for DACA, babysitter, and washes cars.
These claims triggered Kenyans on Twitter as always. For the better part of the morning they have been ripping the lady and her story apart attacking her from every angle imaginable.
In the interview Achieng talks about her parents selling land, taking loans and borrowing cash to educate her...but later she mentions how they are also giving back to the society because they are truly blessed and that they are educating 10 plus kids... pic.twitter.com/EroTRsFQcZ— aleckie ronald (@SirAlexas) May 3, 2019
A Luo. From Kisumu. Learn English from Ellen Show & Cyber café ? Achieng yawa. The lies! She should have even said she learnt New vocabulary from the show. It's easier to locate a school in Kisumu than a cyber café. And English is compulsory from kindergarten. Ama namna gani?— BRAVIN™ (@IamBravin) May 3, 2019
