I’ll explain in depth the circumstances around the “Murife Don’t Run” viral clip that has had Kenyans laughing and provided material for countless new memes.
The Internet was in stitches after a video surfaced of a middle-aged man being chased by two dogs.
A Twitter user named Vinny uploaded a clip showing a distressed man named Murife desperately trying to outrun the hounds who are chasing him.
In the background, as Murife ran for his life, two women could be heard yelling at him, pleading with him to stop. Now we get to the humorous portion of the story.
Stop running! Please, don’t flee! Murife, stay put! It sounded like one of the women was yelling.
The two women undoubtedly judged the man to be foolish for trying to escape the two canines. Although Murife’s morality was tested by the frantic puppies, deciding to stop running seemed even riskier.
The video quickly gained popularity online, and many Kenyans have used the women’s voices to make their own versions of viral internet jokes.
Many Kenyans said the two women yelling at Murife not to run were trying to trick him, and some said Murife only has a chance of survival because he disregarded their advise and went with his own moral compass.
