The world was celebrating Father’s Day on Sunday, June 18 when a teenager caught people’s attention.
Father’s Day is a special occasion that pays tribute to fathers and father figures, recognizing their role in society, fatherhood, and the bonds they share with their children.
Instead of acknowledging the significance of Father’s Day, the teenager named Shirleen chose to celebrate her mother, Edday Nderitu, on this day.
On social media, Shirleen expressed her appreciation for her mother by posting a heartfelt message accompanied by a photo of Edday. The message included a Bible verse, 2 Timothy 1:7, emphasizing the qualities of strength, love, and self-discipline.
While Shirleen and her mother Edday overlooked the importance of Samidoh, Shirleen’s father, on Father’s Day, another individual, Karen Nyamu, was quick to make Samidoh feel special. Karen Nyamu treated the Mugithi singer by buying him an expensive alcoholic beverage worth Ksh420,000 and spending the day enjoying each other’s company.
In summary, despite the traditional celebration of Father’s Day, Shirleen chose to honor her mother instead. Meanwhile, Karen Nyamu stepped in to make Samidoh, Shirleen’s father, feel appreciated by treating him to an extravagant gift and spending quality time together.
