Boy refuses to attend school due to disliking his grandmother's shoe choice, sparking humorous reactions on social media.
A young boy's adamant refusal to attend school because he disliked the school shoes his grandmother bought for him has gone viral, sparking amusement and humorous reactions on social media.
A photo shared on X by the boy's aunt showed him half-lying on a couch, seemingly in protest against the footwear in question. "My nephew is refusing to go to school because of the school shoes that Grandma bought for him," she wrote.
A closer look at the shoes revealed why the boy might have taken issue with them – they appeared more suited for a middle-aged woman than a young student, prompting many to side with the boy's stance. The amusing incident quickly gained traction online, with users sharing their thoughts and experiences. "We walked barefoot aache ujinge (you should go)," one user quipped, while another simply stated, "Even me I can't (wear those shoes)."
Some users expressed support for the boy's defiance, with one writing, "I stand with him...ata mm siendi (I wouldn't go either)." Others speculated on possible reasons, suggesting he might have wanted socks instead.
