Kenyan digital creator Kabugi has strongly criticised claims linking the death of Karen Lojore to alleged “sacrifices” following the tragic incident at Asake’s concert held on December 20.

Lojore reportedly died during a stampede at the event, sparking widespread debate and speculation on social media.

Taking to his Instagram Stories, Kabugi dismissed the narrative circulating online that attempted to shift blame onto the Nigerian artiste, questioning the logic behind the accusations.

“Allow me to ask, what in the hell is this mentality… ati two people died in his 02 show too?” he wrote.

Kabugi expressed frustration over what he described as misplaced blame, noting that Asake appeared on stage long after the incident had allegedly occurred.

“We have lost a soul and suddenly you want to shift the blame to someone who came on stage 99 hours later,” he stated, adding that responsibility should lie with those tasked with crowd control and event safety.

He further condemned the suggestion that the tragedy was linked to rituals, saying, “We have people who were supposed to be responsible for the control and now it’s sacrifices?”

Kabugi made it clear that he does not subscribe to such beliefs, stating, “I am not a believer of sacrifices and whatever, so pardon my ignorance.”

In a strongly worded conclusion, the digital creator urged Kenyans to reject what he termed dangerous thinking.

“Mko sure hata hii agenda ya sacrifices ni yenyu? Hii akili tusikubali kupata nayo watoto,” he wrote, before paying tribute to the deceased: “RIP Lojore.”

Kabugi’s remarks have resonated with many online, with netizens echoing his call for accountability and urging authorities and event organisers to focus on facts rather than speculation.

The death of Karen Lojore continues to spark conversations around event safety, responsibility, and the spread of misinformation during moments of national grief.
