This is not the first time that Kenyans have fought another country on social media. In 2014, Kenyans turned on South Africa after their Sports Minister Fikile Mbalula’s said, “South Africa wouldn’t be like Kenya and send athletes to the Olympics to drown in the pool.”

KOT pummeled South Africa for several days using the hash tag #SomeoneTellSouthAfrica, drawing regional attention to Mbaluka’s remarks.
