Almost every other person on social media cannot seem to get enough of one Mr. Aron Asiiba Matende, the man behind the viral ‘Nitakufinya’ meme.
Matende, a bodaboda rider now, was in a viral video that was shot exclusively by K24 TV back in 2011 where he was seen issuing a warning to a man who was then getting interviewed by the aforementioned news channel over electricity issues in Mukuru Kwa Njenga’s slum in Nairobi.
“Asiongee mambo ya stima, aongee mambo ingine. Mambo ya stima wachia watu wa stima waongee. Ongea unataka serikali akupee kazi (Stop talking about electricity matters. Let the people involved speak about it. Ask the government to give you a job),” Asiiba is heard telling Musyoka before he (Musyoka) retorted saying ‘mimi niko na kazi‘ (I have a job).
Asiiba then walked away saying ‘nitakufinya’ (I will squeeze you) to which Musyoka responded ‘finya!’ (squeeze!).
Speaking exclusively to a K24 reporter, Matende said that the guy who he interrupted on a live TV interview is a very close friend of his and he’s called Charles Musyoka going further to disclose that Mr. Charles wasn’t electrocuted as he claimed in the viral interview.
“Musyoka got injured while working in a certain company in Industrial Area. He was lying that he was electrocuted. That is why I intervened,” Asiiba revealed.
A few years later after the interview, Matende broke his silence about the viral interview.
Matende is shocked to see himself trending after 10 long years since the interview saying that he’s trending but he doesn’t have any money in his pocket.
“Natrend na sina kakitu bwana (I am trending yet I have nothing in my pocket man),” Asiiba told K24 TV’s reporter.
