Kenyan actor, writer, and producer Abel Mutua has acquired a new Land Rover Discovery 4 after bidding farewell to his cherished Mercedes Benz E250 after five years of ownership.
The multi-talented entertainer, known for creative works on TV and digital platforms, celebrated this new toy with his friends Timothy Kimani alias Njugush and Eddie Butita.
While picking his new car, Mutua claimed that his new ride was much better than Njugush's Toyota Prado.
"Timothy Kimani Ndegwa do not talk to me. In case to need to say something write an email and we will respond in three to five business days. Kimani it is over for you," Abel teased.
Earlier, Mutua took to social media to announce that he was disposing of his Benz and posted a heartfelt message accompanied by a video of the beloved car being loaded onto a truck.
In the caption, he expressed gratitude for the unforgettable memories and experiences he had with the vehicle throughout the years.
He had nicknamed the vehicle Miss GT (God's Time).
“And after five beautiful years, it’s time to say goodbye. This one was truly one of the best we’ve ever had. It really does feel some type of way but, you know, Change is inevitable.
“I pray Miss GT finds a beautiful home coz she damn well deserves it. Haya… Mlisema stage ya Kiambu ilihama pale Park Road ama nirisk tu?” Abel captioned.
In a past interview, Mkurugenzi, as he is popularly known, said he planned to gift the car to his daughter when she joins the university, his move to dispose of suggests that he changed his mind.
Mutua's Mercedes Benz E250 has been a symbol of his success and hard work in the entertainment industry.
Over the years, he has established himself as one of Kenya's most beloved actors and has gained a considerable following both on and off-screen.
Other than being his favourite car, the Mercedes Benz E250 has also been used to transport VIPs and visiting dignitaries.
As a prominent figure in the Kenyan entertainment scene, Mutua's actions often generate buzz and speculation among fans and industry insiders alike.
