Kenyan TikToker Peter Kioi was involved in a grisly road accident on the night of Friday, June 13, 2025, as he was driving back from Nakuru after attending the burial of fellow TikToker Milly wa Doc.
Following the harrowing ordeal, Kioi has since poured out how profoundly grateful he feels to have emerged alive from the ghastly crash and has asked his fans and all TikTokers he may have wronged to find it in their hearts to forgive him.
“I say I am okay, but I cannot pretend that I am fine. “TikTokers, I humbly ask for your forgiveness for anything I may have ever done to offend you,” he wrote.
Kioi, who had been among the lineup of TikTokers who flocked to Nakuru to pay their last respects to Milly wa Doc during her burial, further extended his heartfelt plea for forgiveness to his wife.
He said that he may have wronged her in many ways he cannot clearly articulate or even recall, and he asked that she also find a place in her heart to forgive him.
“To my lovely wife, please forgive me for anything and everything I have ever done,” Kioi said.
The outspoken TikToker, who shared a photo of himself curled up beneath a pillow, further extended the olive branch of forgiveness to his mother, his siblings, and his brothers, saying they should always remember that he loves them.
At that moment, he also hinted at the deep regret of not having been able to provide a better life for his mother, expressing a wish that his siblings would succeed in life and give their mother the kind of life he was unable to offer her.
Kioi expressed the weight of his remorse and added that openly asking for forgiveness was his way of seeking peace for his soul.
“To my mum, please forgive me. To my siblings, your brother loves you, okay? You will succeed and one day lift Mum out of hardship. I am at peace. Please forgive me,” he added.
At the same time, Kioi noted that he was, however, not seeking forgiveness from his TikToker friend Diana Rose, citing personal reasons.
It remained unclear why he specifically shut Diana out of his emotional message, but fans began reading between the lines, seeking the underlying meaning from his post.
“I ask all of you to forgive me, except Diana Rose,” he wrote.
Fatal accident
The accident that nearly claimed the life of the renowned TikToker occurred in the dead of night on Friday, June 13, 2025.
Kioi had been driving a Toyota Fielder, which was left severely mangled after the crash, with the front bonnet completely crushed and the entire front section of the car torn off due to the sheer impact of the collision.
In a heartfelt TikTok post, Kioi thanked God for sparing his life and announced that he would be taking some time off before making a stronger comeback.
“I will come back strong,” he posted.
The TikToker had encountered the horrific accident after what had been a successful day in Nakuru, where he had travelled with other content creators to bury their fellow TikToker Milly wa Doc, who had died the previous week following a complicated health condition.
Kioi had been part of a group that included other TikTokers such as Prince Mwiti, who had journeyed to the Susan Kihika-led county to bid their final farewells to Milly, who had lived a solitary life, much like many of them who go live daily on the popular video-sharing app.
She was laid to rest at Nakuru South Cemetery in a sombre burial that left mourners teary-eyed, as her children broke down in emotional agony after seeing their mother’s casket being lowered into the grave.
