Two young girls were left stranded in Athi River, a town in Machakos County, Kenya, after they had a disagreement with the man who took them there and did not have money to go home.
The girls, whose identities have not been revealed, recorded a video of themselves walking in the dark along the road, asking for help from anyone who could see their TikTok post.
The video seen by cnyakundi.com was posted on X (formerly Twitter) by Carlton Kitheka (@carltonkitheka1).
It has since gone viral on social media, sparking both outrage and sympathy from netizens.
At least they were able to escape cause this whole situation is insane. https://t.co/AgI8JVYUIa pic.twitter.com/MlOeYoVTT8
