She said her son has been affected and been out of school for sometime now.

She said he has been reduced to a 'chokora' (street kid) and can only speak in English, Swahili and Kikuyu languages.

Miaka mbili tumeteseka. Mtoto aliwacha shule, anaelekea kuwa chokora… Wamekataa kabisa kufungua hiyo account. Mtoto ata hawezi ongea Kijerumani, anaongea Kikuyu na Kiswahili ama Kizungu,' Ngirita lamented.

She also stated that the Ngiritas cars and other properties had been seized by the police, forcing her to use matatus (public transport).

Kenyans took to social media to make fun of Ngirita and below are the reactions

Dominic Aruya From this, I realize Kenya is blessed with chokora kibao.

Nyarari Not my cup of tea, but who said speaking Swahili or English is for chokoras? I mean how can you even assume that speaking German is more prestigious than English, the language of the world? How many countries in the world speak German?

Miwa Savage From today I'm only interacting with west African Tweeps cos they speak French.

Relieved face No way I'm I going to interact with Chokoraas

Put litter in its place symbol Waititu is the only exception cos he speaks Bunjabi #ngiritas
