Why Ng'ang'a owns expensive phone
He contrasted his situation with his followers, saying he bought his phone at KSh 240,000 because of his class.
"How will you go and buy a phone worth KSh 20,000? Worse, is acquiring it through an instalment plan. You can only buy a KSh 20,000 phone if you are stupid because you will have to think about the phone every time.
This mine cost me KSh 240,000. I was given KSh 160,000 by someone to buy a phone then I topped it up. So why would you want to buy this phone? You know I don't usually use every application on this phone. I only use WhatsApp, Facebook and YouTube. However, I bought it because of my class. If we go to a meeting I just place it on the table," Ng'ang'a said.
