Kenyan TikTok creator Steve Alvin Muthoni, alias Aq9ine, has revealed that joblessness led him to start preparing and eating bizarre dishes.

Speaking in a recent interview, the TikToker narrated how his lack of a job led him to start cooking and eating weird food.

"Honestly, all these videos started because I didn't have any job, I was just a comrade, just chilling and not knowing what to do then decided to start content creating, I started with comedy then changed to cooking unthinkable food," said the TikToker.
