Content creator Mtu Necessary has recently commented on the rising backlash against Burundians in Kenya, using satire to highlight the absurdity of claims that they are 'taking Kenyan jobs.'

In his reaction, Mtu Necessary pointed out the irony of Kenyans being concerned about foreigners competing for low-wage jobs, such as selling tea on the streets. He urged Kenyans to remain vigilant and think critically rather than blindly following the growing anti-Burundian sentiment, emphasizing that frustrations over jobs and the economy should not lead to hostility against an entire nationality.
