Many Kenyans were eager to know how Carolyne’s son performed after she picked him up from school in style. The social media influencer went all out for her son’s special day as he cleared his KCSE exams on Friday, November 2024.
“Today, I am the happiest woman on this planet earth. Have you seen what the Lord has done? This is what I prayed for,” she wrote. Carolyne then shared a video of Tyrese getting picked up in a white BMW limousine. The vehicle’s number plate had her son’s name written on it. Two bodyguards ushered him into the car as his schoolmates watched in disbelief. Following the release of the exams, Carolyne shared a photo with her son at the school. The proud mother thanked God for his performance while taking a swipe at detractors. “He is called the God of widowed women. Congratulations, my Tyrese. Will you guys also say that I bribed someone for this?” she wrote.
One teacher commented by commending Tyrese’s character in school “Congrats to my student. Tyrese was a humble one. May Lord bless you,” Stephen Mburu Njuguna wrote. “Thank you so much for mentoring my son,” Carolyne responded. However, she did not specify the grade Tyrese scored. Many Kenyans congratulated the young man, but some were curious about his grade. Keziah Wa Kariuki: “Congratulations, darling.” Timothy M. Muya: “Which grade did he get?” Wangui Wanjau: “Congratulations to your son.”
