Ngirita was at Milimani Law Courts where awaiting for the determination of a case in which she had applied for a bail.
The boldness and audacity with which she displayed the tattoo was albeit buffling leaving Kenyans raising different concerns.
Some were quick to read possible mischief in the tattoo photo wondering whether it could be a possibly coded message.

I now agree with those saying these are just the collateral.The real NYS thugs are roaming our streets. NMG is being used to splash this ngirita family in the consiousness of Kenyans so we equate #Nysscandal with them just like kabura in season 1

Another group however saw the leaked tattoo photo as a calculated distraction from the ongoing case against the NYS scandal suspects.
Githeri Media loses focus on the #NYSscandal and gets distracted by a mere tattoo.
Says "Ngirita displays tattoo on her RIGHT hand.." when in real sense, the tattoo is on her LEFT arm. Bogus! pic.twitter.com/6HaHS8uvSf— Fredrick Mirikau (@MirikauFredrick) June 5, 2018
