It may not have happened in Kenya, but trust Kenyans to be interested in anything that happens far away from their borders.
On Saturday, South Africans gathered to mourn their anti-apartheid heroine and former wife to their late founding father Nelson Mandela, Mama Winnie Mandela.
However, despite the many tributes shared by several dignitaries at the event, firebrand Economic Freedom Fighters(EFF) youthful leader Mr Julius Malema resonated most with Kenyans who took his speech and transformed it into Twitter trending hashtag.
In his unforgiving tribute to Winnie, Malema spared not the leaders who were present at the event for the difficult time they took the late Winnie through.
"Even those who make our lives difficult knowing that you cant do without them are here pretending to really care....mama help us know how to deal with them," said Malema.
Here are some of the comic twists Kenyans gave to the speech.
