His grandmother remembered Chira as a God-fearing man and the family's breadwinner.
She recounted the Tiktoker's childhood saying that he was a responsible boy who looked after his other family members.
His grandmother said that Chira was left in her care at the age of eight after his mother's death.
"Brian Chira was my first grandson, born by my first daughter. He has been my best friend since childhood. He has been providing for us and has been obedient as always. He took care of his cousins. He could wash and clean the house," she said.
Musician Otile Brown delivered a heartfelt rendition of his hit song 'One Call' at TikToker Brian Chira's funeral.
