Life can be quite interesting. Last week, out of the blue I encountered drama fit for Riverwood and Nollywood. I was at the airport to catch a flight to a coastal destination. As fate would have it, I was travelling on a budget airline. We were many on this flight.
I think the shilling has taken quite a beating and Kenyans have resorted to all manner of tricks, saving and innovation to get business done. In front of me, there was this girl who looked excited to be making this trip. Going by her excitement, I can safely assume that either she was either travelling by air for the very first time or whatever was awaiting her on the other day was simply irresistible.
