Njoro’s top 5 most hectic rides ever on Njoro wa Uba
The daily life of a taxi driver can be turbulent, you can never predict the character or temperament of passengers. Njoro’s situation in Kenyan favourite series Njoro wa Uba is no different. He has met all sorts of clients, people who have scared him, drove him to anger or humiliated him. Look at his most forgettable trips.
1. Njoro and a jealous boyfriend
Njoro picks a couple who haven’t seen each other in a while. The girl is from Holland and her boyfriend, a Kenyan, doesn’t speak English. Njoro initiates a conversation with the girl in English. As the chat progresses, the boyfriend gets jealous – thinking Njoro is flirting with his girlfriend, things spiral out of control quickly.
2. Njoro and a cheating husband
Another couple problem. After a wife catches her husband cheating, she drags him home, and Njoro is their lucky driver. You can guess how the trip went, or just watch a preview below.
3. Njoro in a minor accident
Away from the couple drama, Njoro encounters a thrifty driver. He is having a terrible morning, and it is about to get worse. He is involved in an accident; luckily, the other car suffered no damage, but this doesn’t stop the owner from trying to extort Njoro anyway.
4. Njoro encounters a thrifty escort
Njoro is forced into a scam by a local woman scamming tourist. He’s driving an escort and her client. The journey takes a different turn when she asks him to lie about the cost of the trip to make extra from her client.
5. A mother uses Njoro as a pictorial representation of failure
African mothers love real-life examples when cautioning their kids about the future. On this beautiful day, Njoro gets reduced to an example by a mother admonishing her son for not studying for his exams.
