Biker Nairobi: Brayo the Biker on why he prefers to remain faceless, his sudden rise to fame

The biker records his rides, the love he gets from the public, and even the run-ins he has had with traffic police in the streets of Nairobi, and shares them to his online audience. 

No one truly knows how his face looks like because all the time he is concealed in his helmet. Yet still, many Nairobians relate with him and can easily identify him, and they always give him a shout. 

In an interview with Citizen Digital, Brayo said he was born and raised in Nairobi, and he is a real estate agent. 

"My daily hustle is real estate, that is where I make my living. I have chosen to remain faceless because that way it gives me an identity and I can go about my normal life without drawing a lot of attention," Brayo said.

In some of his clips, he has been seen helping people in the streets by offering them free rides, especially those who cannot afford fare back home or to their places of work. This has also earned him admiration among his online followers. 

Brayo says he has the heart of helping people without demanding recognition.

On the many road accidents in Nairobi and in Kenya, he says he always advocates for road safety, especially among bodaboda riders. Brayo urges them to always be in their helmets and the right gear to avoid injuries and accidents in general.
