Kenyans can’t look away from the storm kicked up by Shiru wa Oakland’s Russian guy disease claims. The outspoken social commentator went live, suggesting the foreign visitor going viral for bedroom videos might be deliberately infecting women with something new and dangerous.
Shiru didn’t hold back in her session, watched by thousands online. “This Russian guy is pursuing a mission,” Shiru bluntly stated, her eyes wide with concern.
She hinted his nonstop hookups – secretly filmed and shared – could be part of some twisted plan to spread a fresh illness across the country.
Videos show him approaching ladies in Nairobi streets, inviting them home, then posting intimate clips without consent. Outrage boiled over fast, but Shiru’s theory took it darker, warning people to steer clear of anyone linked to him.
The man, called Yaytseslav in reports, turned heads first with pickup lines on coastal beaches and city spots. Clips spread, showing women going to his apartment, unaware of hidden cameras.
When videos leaked, anger erupted – protests outside stations, calls for arrest, and women confronting him in leaked chats. Privacy violations hit hard, with some saying he exploits curiosity about foreigners.
Shiru’s disease angle added fuel. She urged caution around women who’ve been with him, fearing unknown infections. Health talks popped up too, reminding everyone about protection in casual encounters. Although there have been no official tests or confirmations of any outbreaks linked to him yet, the fear can sometimes spread more quickly than the facts.
Not everyone buys Shiru’s take. Some call it overreach, saying the real issue is consent and respect, not conspiracy. “He’s wrong for filming without asking, full stop,” one commenter wrote.
Others worry wild claims scare people unnecessarily. Police haven’t confirmed investigations, though pressure mounts for action on the recordings.
Shiru wa Oakland built her name speaking raw truth on relationships, culture, and street life. Her lives pull big crowds, mixing humour with hard hits.
This time, the message landed heavy – protect yourselves, question strangers bearing gifts (or invites). Women shared stories of similar run-ins, praising her for sounding alarms.
As clips keep circulating and debates rage in groups, the Russian guy’s face stays everywhere. Deported? Arrested? Quiet exit? No word yet.
Shiru, the Oakland Russian guy with the disease warning, has people thinking twice about quick flings. In a country loving drama but hating exploitation, this one’s far from over.
