Kenyans tasked Africa Digital Influencer Awards(ADIA) to explain how is it possible World record holder Eliud Kipchoge, the legend be a fitness influencer and compete with Talia Oyando?
Eliud Kipchoge ranks high to the level of Christiano Ronaldo, Usain Bolt, Raphael Nadal, Serena Williams among other world record superstars.
However, ADIA placed Kipchoge under fitness influencer with Mitchelle Adagala, Talia Oyando, Shiv Simani among others on fitness influencer of the year.
Kenyans on social media were irritated on the decision to place Kipchoge on the fitness influencer award as a way of undermining his world records.
They asked which world records do Adagala, Oyando and Simani have to equate themselves with Legend Eliud Kipchoge.

Four of the people in this section don’t exist in the same universe as Eliud Kipchoge. And I am saying it na ubaya.
There is something fucked up about Kenya, where people like Ngugi wa Thiongo and Eliud Kipchoge are made comparable with mortals. pic.twitter.com/c9nitgB2qL
