Sandra Mbuvi, the daughter of former Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko, has once again become the centre of attention on social media after she was involved in a disagreement with an event staff member over seating arrangements during a celebrity boxing match.
The incident happened at a boxing event attended by several celebrities, influencers, and fans. A video from the venue quickly spread online, showing Sandra in a discussion with an event official regarding where she was supposed to sit.
Although the disagreement appeared to be about seating, the clip attracted widespread attention because Sandra has recently been trending online over her behaviour during several internet live streams.
Many social media users linked the latest incident to previous videos that have circulated online. In recent weeks, Sandra has appeared in several IRL live streams, where her conduct has generated mixed reactions among viewers.
Some online users have criticised her attitude, with a section of Kenyans describing her as a “spoilt rich brat.” They argued that the latest incident added to the perception that she expects special treatment because of her family background.
Others, however, defended Sandra, saying short viral clips do not always show the full story. They pointed out that disagreements can happen at crowded public events and that people should avoid judging someone based on a few seconds of video.
Supporters also argued that there may have been confusion over reserved seats or event arrangements, and that it is unfair to reach conclusions before knowing exactly what happened.
The incident quickly became one of the most discussed topics on Kenyan social media, with users sharing different opinions about Sandra’s behaviour and the actions of the event staff.
