“Afadhali kulipwa 50K lakini matako yako iko intact”: Alex Mathenge Fires Back at Kenyan Prince Over 50K Salary Remarks

Kenyan content creator Alex Mathenge has hit back at controversial online personality Kenyan Prince, who recently stirred debate after claiming that Kenyans earning less than Ksh 50,000 a month “have no future.”

In a sharp response, Mathenge mocked the sentiment with humor, saying:

“Afadhali kulipwa 50K lakini matako yako iko intact, lakini ukishararuliwa matako haiwezi rudi normal!”

His blunt comeback quickly went viral, with many Kenyans applauding him for defending ordinary hustlers who survive on modest incomes.

Kenyan Prince’s remarks had sparked outrage, as critics accused him of being out of touch with the realities facing millions of Kenyans struggling with high living costs and limited job opportunities.

Mathenge’s response added a comedic yet powerful counterpoint, reminding Kenyans that dignity and self-worth cannot be measured purely by income. The exchange has since fueled wider conversations about class, privilege, and the daily struggles of the working population.
