A lighthearted yet emotional incident has surfaced online after a young Kenyan man was captured shedding tears as his girlfriend prepared to join Kenyatta University.
The unidentified man, who has since gone viral, was seen in an emotional state, lamenting that his relationship might never be the same again now that his girlfriend had secured a place at the prestigious university. In a video making rounds on social media, he pleaded with his friends to “ambia Voke kitu,” loosely translated as “please tell Voke something,” expressing his fear of losing her to campus life.
Netizens quickly picked up the clip, flooding comment sections with mixed reactions. Some sympathized with the young man, saying his pain was genuine and a reflection of how deeply he loved his partner. Others, however, poked fun at him, joking that he should “accept and move on” because campus life often comes with new challenges and temptations.
The incident has since sparked a wider discussion on social media about trust in young relationships, especially when one partner joins university. Many argued that distance and exposure to new environments test the strength of youthful love.
While it remains unclear how the story of the teary boyfriend and his girlfriend “Voke” will unfold, one thing is certain—the moment has left many Kenyans entertained, with the phrase “Ambia Voke kitu” becoming the latest catchphrase online.
