Kenyan Instagram model and socialite Nica Njenga has sparked conversation online after showing off a stash of cash she claims to have saved over the last three months.

In a viral video circulating on social media platforms, the influencer opened what she referred to as her “piggy bank” and displayed bundles of money reportedly accumulated since January.

The video quickly gained traction across Kenyan entertainment blogs and gossip pages, with many users debating her lifestyle and statements about relationships and wealth.
“No Reward in Dating a Broke Man”
In the widely shared clip, Njenga is seen counting large amounts of cash while explaining her perspective on dating and financial stability. In one of the statements that stirred discussion online, she said:
“Hakuna reward ya kuvulia mwanaume mwenye hana pesa.”
The phrase loosely translates to “There is no reward in going after a man who has no money.”
The socialite suggested that beauty and youth should not be wasted on partners who cannot provide a comfortable lifestyle, adding that some men may take advantage of women’s attractiveness without offering financial security in return.
