A TikTok creator known as Buffalo has attracted widespread attention after sharing a video showing him transforming a mud house with cement and decorative artwork.
Buffalo posted the clip on 25 August 2026. The footage shows him applying cement plaster over the mud structure before adding detailed artistic designs to its exterior walls.
The unusual project drew thousands of views and triggered varied reactions from online users, including audiences across Kenya and elsewhere in Africa.
