In her previous posts, Ronoh had accused the celebrities of being mean to her or copying her content. However, her claims were met with mixed reactions, with some fans defending the celebrities and calling out Ronoh for her behavior.

One of her targets, Elsa Majimbo, had previously addressed reports of being compared to Ronoh during an interview with Shaffie Weru in 2020.

She also acknowledged that Ronoh had offered her some advice and support when she started.

Despite this, Ronoh still felt she deserved more recognition than Majimbo and other celebrities in the industry.

Some fans criticized her claims of being copied and pointed out that similar ideas often emerge independently among content creators.
