Kevin Mboya, a man who went viral after his plan to surprise his girlfriend in Kwale backfired.

The love struck travelled for hours to deliver an apology to his bae only for her to refuse to pick up his calls.

Through his Twitter account, Mboya says he is lucky to have been among people to win green-cards in 2023.

"I never thought I would make it when I applied for the USA Green Card. I have just checked online to see if I was selected, and I am extremely happy for the results that I have received.

I am so happy, man! Congratulations to me and all those whose applications were successful."

In a video update via his socials, Mboya disclosed that upon reaching Kwale, his girlfriend became unresponsive.

Mboya narrated that he showed up at her workplace and was assured by the receptionist that he would be able to see the love of his life but that never happened.

He waited for close to two hours until the office was closed with his girlfriend nowhere to be seen.

Mboya who trended on Twitter for days said that he was left stranded and disappointed in Kwale.

He also hinted the girl stopped picking up his calls and  blocked him.

“I waited and when it was around a quarter to 4 pm, I feel the need to text her …saying I’m around just waiting for you so that we can go home together (at her place).

At around 4:30 pm, I decided to call her because she had not responded to my message…at first when I called her phone and it was not picked up then after 10 minutes I called again and the number was busy. I was just wondering I have been here since 4 pm and you are not showing up or picking up my calls.

He continued; "I waited, but she never came, it was 5 pm and the receptionist tells me they are closing.

…I tried to call her via WhatsApp, but she was offline, I started telling myself maybe something was wrong, maybe she was not around,".

Following the unresponsive nature of his girlfriend, Mboya started blaming himself for travelling to Kwale uninvited.

“I told myself maybe doesn’t want to see me because I never told her I was coming, or maybe she had other plans with someone else... so I left and went to my friend's place.  So all along I was training to call her but she was not responding. Then it hit me that maybe this lady doesn’t want anything to do with me. And that’s why I decided that I was going to come back to Nairobi.

According to a disappointed Mboya, he is yet to hear from his girlfriend in Kwale – with all his calls and text messages still unanswered.

“She has never texted me back and I even now don’t see her status on WhatsApp, I don’t know what happened. I can’t see if she is online or not so, so that’s how things turned out.

“And that’s why I had to come back with the flowers is because I never found the person I was supposed to give the flowers so I had to come back with them. I’m yet to hear from her maybe one day she will one out and tell me this and this happened, as of now I know nothing, Mboya narrated.

Mboya also expressed gratitude to all Kenyans who showed concern after he went mute upon reaching Kwale.

“Thank you to everyone who has come out to encourage me to speak out about what really happened in Kwale. In an African setup, it's not easy for men to come out and speak about these things because of the male ego and also because you will be judged and called names to shame you,” he added.
