The viral TikTok grandma, who has been raising concerns among netizens with her late-night live videos, has revealed how much she earns from these sessions.
The grandmother, widely recognized as ‘Shosh Wa Thika,’ has been seen several times falling asleep during her late-night TikTok live sessions, which frequently extend until around 2 a.m.
In a recent interview with DJ Sonnie on YouTube, Shosh Wa Thika explained that she began streaming live on TikTok at 2 a.m. as a response to her struggles with insomnia.
“Sometimes I go to bed, and I can’t sleep at all. So, I use that time to be active on TikTok, tapping away,” she shared.
Shosh Wa Thika disclosed that her TikTok live sessions once earned her KSh 100,000 in a single night.
“There was a time I made KSh 100,000 in one night. I haven’t made such a large amount again, but I was thrilled because I didn’t expect it. God has truly blessed me,” she said.

Sometimes, you might wake up thinking you can’t sleep, but as you get up to do something, sleep catches up with you,” she said.
