Classic 105’s busted queen Ciku
Muiruri was in Chicago with her daughter Erica for the marathon which her
daughter was participating in to raise funds for mobile blood units in Kenya.
During her stay, Ciku met a
waitress who seems to think that Kenya and Africa in general is poor and
everyone lives in huts. This was her update on the same:
So this
Black American who was serving us breakfast has just asked me if we live in
huts back home. I told her that there is poverty everywhere, even in Chicago,
where I’ve seen many homeless chaps. She nods impatiently and says “But all of
YOU live like that. There are no buildings like this, right?”
I slowly counted to 10 and handed her my camera that has pics of me in Serena Elementaita and Swahili Beach hotel and said in my sweetest voice: “Our hotels are much nicer. Your hotel, for us, is a downgrade.” You should’ve seen her face. LOL!
