"I love nganyas. There was a time I used to live in Rongai and would board them daily, but where I moved to, there are no nganyas, only Super Metro," she said.

Achieng said her husband likes the Mamba's graffiti, and he, plus the wedding coordinator planned to surprise her.

The newlywed said the ride was mad fun.

"Riding in the nganya with our team was lit. Why book a limousine when there are nganyas?" she posed.

Achieng said the nganya arrival set the mood for the reception, and everyone was super excited when they arrived in Kitengela.

"Music from different African artistes was played, and we enjoyed," she said.

The bubbly newlywed told TUKO.co.ke that she met her husband in 2014 while still in university and started dating.
