Kenyan Socialite Azziad’s Sh25 Million Kileleshwa Home Faces Auction Over Mortgage Default

Kenya’s “TikTok Queen” Azziad Nasenya is back in the headlines—only this time, it’s not about a viral dance challenge or brand endorsement deal, but about the looming loss of her luxurious Kileleshwa apartment to the auctioneer’s hammer.

According to a notice by Okuku Agencies, Azziad’s Sh25 million home at the prestigious Platinum Oak Residency has been listed for public auction after she allegedly defaulted on her mortgage repayments.

The plush high-rise apartment complex popular with Nairobi’s elite boasts 4- and 5-bedroom units complete with a gym, swimming pool, kids’ play area, CCTV security, borehole water, power backup, and ample parking.

Bidders hoping to claim the media personality’s residence have been asked to deposit Sh100,000 for a bidding number, with the winner expected to pay 10 percent at the fall of the hammer and clear the balance within 90 days.

Just a few years ago, Azziad was one of Kenya’s most bankable social media influencers.

At the peak of her fame in 2020, a leaked rate card revealed she was pocketing as much as Sh100,000 per TikTok video, Sh50,000 per Instagram live, and Sh100,000 per Facebook post.

Brands lined up for her services, with some paying Sh250,000 for monthly influencer packages. She was celebrated as the face of Kenya’s digital celebrity economy, commanding both admiration and envy.

But the glamorous façade seems to have cracked. While the reasons for her alleged financial strain remain unclear, whispers of over-leveraging to maintain a high-end lifestyle have fueled speculation.

For a star once seen as untouchable, the thought of her losing her home has sent shockwaves across social media, with fans expressing both sympathy and schadenfreude.

Azziad has not publicly addressed the auction reports, leaving room for speculation on whether this is the beginning of a financial downfall or simply a temporary setback in her glittering career.

For now, the countdown to the auction has begun—and all eyes are on whether Kenya’s most famous TikTok star will save her Kileleshwa palace, or watch it go to the highest bidder.
