On a busy Nairobi morning, the hum of the city's bustling bus station was interrupted by an unexpected display of affection that left passengers on a matatu travelling between the city centre and Malaa in Machakos County in utter disbelief.

The matatu, already packed with commuters, saw two young women board with a sense of defiance in their eyes. They pushed their way into the crowded vehicle, and within moments, the noise in the air shifted. They began kissing each other passionately, oblivious to the awkward glances and muttered gasps from the surrounding passengers. One of the women, as though daring anyone to question them, turned to a tout who had asked about their relationship and declared, "This is my husband, and I love her very much."
