Bradley Marongo, popularly known as the "Gen Z Goliath," has opened up about his journey from humble beginnings to a life of success and luxury.
The 28-year-old entrepreneur and content creator revealed that one of his early struggles was finding clothes that fit his towering frame.
Today, he imports his wardrobe directly from Dubai. Once a regular commuter on public transport, he now drives a sleek Toyota TX.
"Nilikuwa namove around na matatu, lakini sa ii naenda na TX. Kitu ilikuwa inanilemea Kenya ilikuwa kupata nguo. Sa ii na import from Dubai," he shared.
Bradley also spoke about the challenges he faced growing up, describing a childhood marked by poverty and hardship.
He recalled how his family often went without food and how he wore the same pair of worn-out sneakers to school every day. From a young age, he had to hustle to help support his family.
"I remember times when we didn't know if we'd have food to eat. I wore the same worn-out sneakers to school every day and worked hard after class just to help out at home - those days taught me how to keep pushing no matter what," he said.
Standing at an astonishing 8.2 feet tall, Marongo is the tallest man in Kenya.
Originally from Vihiga County, he rose to fame in 2024 after appearing in the anti-finance bill protests in Nairobi, where his extraordinary height caught national attention.
What started with curious glances and photos quickly turned into interviews and a growing celebrity status.
Since then, Bradley has received numerous gifts, including an all-expenses-paid trip to Dubai courtesy of the Zam Zam brothers.
He now sets his sights on traveling to Dubai, India, and the United States for content creation and business opportunities.
