• A young woman who paid KSh 15,000 rent and deposit, leaving her with no money to feed herself, shared her plight online

A young woman has amused many people on social media after saying that she fears dying of hunger since she was left with nothing after paying KSh 15000 rent and a deposit for a new house.

A TikTok video shared by @_pixie_ shows a very neat bedsitter with clean, white, smooth tiles and a mattress set in one corner of the house.

The recently painted walls of the house look very neat, and on one side of the house were neatly installed shelves that were also white in colour.

Below the shelves, a grey sink is set against matching, patterned tiles, which create a beautiful contrast.

"I will die of hunger, guys; I don't even have dishes," said Pixie.

Most netizens sympathised with the girl, who owns only two plates in her house. Some also took the opportunity to share stories about how they started to live alone.
