It all started in 1998. Though it has not been a walk in the park, the passion that kept David Mathenge alias Nameless and Wahu (Rosemary Wahu Kagwi) going in university, is still alive. From their university days when Nameless had just started singing before meeting Wahu, to the challenges they have experienced while learning the ropes in marriage, for the Mathenges, life, has been a roller-coaster.

The singer whose Megarider hit was one of the breakthrough songs that year says he was not the ‘Nameless’ we know today. He jokes how he felt low on analyzing his performance and reminisced how a star-struck Wahu encouraged him on, saying it was a great show. “I knew she was just saying that to make me feel better but I fell for her at that moment,” Nameless recalled with nostalgia. On Boxing Day, three months after the show, they had their first date at a popular fast-food spot in the city.
