Tiktoker Brian Chira Wambui has recently been granted bail of Sh50,000, along with a surety of the same amount, after facing charges of cyber harassment. The accusations against him involve his TikTok account, where he allegedly defamed Azziad Nasenya, a prominent TikTok Queen and radio host.

After Brian Chira’s bail was granted, Azziad Nasenya’s lawyer, Getrude Kibare, spoke to the media about the possibility of forgiveness in this matter. She stated that if Chira sincerely apologizes to Azziad, she would have the freedom to accept the apology if she chooses to do so. Kibare clarified that if the two parties reach an agreement and Brian apologizes genuinely, they will inform the court of their mutual understanding as individuals.
