An elderly Kenyan woman has captured the admiration of social media users after photos surfaced of her covering her granddaughter with a wrapper due to her choice of ripped jeans. The incident, which gained attention, was shared by Facebook user Wahome Thuku. The photos shared online depict a rural village setting where the grandmother, visibly troubled by her granddaughter’s attire, takes action to address what she perceives as ‘indecency.’
The granddaughter, seated outside a home and sharing a cup of tea with her grandmother, appears amused as the older woman points out the torn spots and ragged holes in her jeans. The grandmother then proceeds to wrap a leso around the younger lady’s waist, eliciting laughter from both parties.
Wahome Thuku’s accompanying caption recalls a similar encounter, where a different elderly lady questioned the appropriateness of worn-out trousers, expressing concern about the family’s financial well-being. “Wafunike kabisa cucu. Tumejaribu, tumeshindwa. Reminds me of an old lady who asked me why I was letting my daughter go out with worn-out trousers. She wondered if my family was in such a big financial hardship,” Thuku wrote. 
The post has since received positive reactions from followers who commend the grandmother for prioritizing cultural values and decency over contemporary fashion. Netizens Reactions… Pst Sarah said; “A very good cucu. She had to stand up and cover up the girl properly, then sit down. Even after sitting down, she had to ensure that the leso was still covering up properly.” Snowie Snow said; “Courtesy demands that you respect the host’s culture. The girl should have dressed well per the grandmother’s customs, then reverted to her fashionable dress elsewhere. Grandmothers are not demanding, and we don’t visit them daily, so it is a small sacrifice. My two cents.” Queen Pascaliah said; “But why should a whole grownup put on such a trouser? Nonsense.” Thiaka Kariuki said; “Swag or none I’ll never wear such jeans. I know what it means to lack and I can’t laugh at the poor who wish they have decent clothes.” Chrispine Mukenya said; “Our society is eroded with the white culture oooh God help us.” See below;
