Renowned Kenyan media personality Lulu Hassan has once again captured public attention, but this time for her culinary skills. Photos of the celebrated news anchor preparing food in her rural home recently surfaced online, triggering a wave of mixed reactions across social media platforms.
In the images, Lulu is seen dressed modestly in traditional attire, standing in an outdoor kitchen as she stirs a pot over an open fire. The setting, which reflects a simple and authentic rural lifestyle, has sparked widespread discussions about her humility and connection to her roots.
Many netizens praised the Swahili news anchor for showcasing her down-to-earth nature. “Lulu Hassan is a true role model. Despite her fame, she hasn’t forgotten her roots,” wrote one admirer on Twitter. Others highlighted her ability to inspire modern women to embrace cultural values, adding that such scenes were refreshing in an era dominated by urban lifestyles.
However, not everyone was impressed. Critics argued that the photos might have been staged for publicity, questioning whether such moments genuinely reflect her everyday life. “Let’s be real. Most celebrities do this for the cameras,” one skeptical user commented.
Lulu Hassan, who has built a reputation as a family-oriented figure alongside her husband Rashid Abdalla, has not commented on the online buzz. Whether staged or not, the photos have reignited conversations about balancing modernity and tradition.
The beloved journalist continues to inspire and divide public opinion, proving her influence extends beyond the TV screen.
