I have Question: What is this ‘. .’ phrase mean?

[backgroundISneeded]

I've been hearing a new phrase since the onset of Covid. While it was mostly used by TikTokers from Kenya initially, I've recently heard even elders using it. The phrase is 'dhiigu biyo ma aha'. I'm curious about its meaning and origins.

As English is the main language in Kenya and I speak it, I've noticed that the phrase resembles the popular saying 'blood is thicker than water'. What are your thoughts on this? Have you heard of it? What does it mean?

Trigger warning. Political Video

I am not familiar with it, and think it might be regional, but the gist of it is, as intended by the speaker in this context: They are not alone, and we are their kith and kin.

Means that Dhiig (blood) is thicker then water, and is less plentyful then water. The world has a lot of water, but not a lot of dhiig, so dont waste dhiig as if it’s biyo oo kale ma garatay?
