Kenyan man brings airport to standstill with marriage proposal to girlfriend – PHOTOS


A Kenyan man has proposed to his girlfriend of two years in a never seen before fashion.

Antony Buluma Samba planned a proposal to Gettie Nthiiri as she landed in the country from an undisclosed location.

The television producer told Nairobi News that he knew she was the woman he wanted to marry and planned a unique proposal.

“We have dated for 2 years, she had flown out for a while and I brought in a band to play as I propose to her on arrival from the undisclosed location,” Mr Buluma told Nairobi News.

When Ms Nthiiri arrived to a warm reception at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, little did she know that her fiance had a big surprise for her.

On emerging from the arrival terminal, she found her boyfriend with a bouquet of flowers and before she could make sense of the activities around them, he went down on one knee with a ring in hand.
