Before her death, Rasna, an active user on X, sent a message to President William Ruto:

“I was diagnosed with cancer soon after you were declared president.

“I have always wondered whether there is a link.

“Before I die, I want to know, how much money and land do you need, and how much suffering do you want to go through?
