In the bustling streets of Nairobi’s Kangemi, a towering figure has captured the attention and hearts of many. Bradley Mulongo, a 27-year-old from Vihiga, stands at an astonishing height of 8.2 feet, earning him the nickname “Goliath wa Gen Z.” His remarkable stature has not only made him a local celebrity but also a symbol of the Gen Z movement in Kenya.
Bradley first came into the limelight during the recent Gen Z protests, where his participation was hard to miss. His height and imposing presence sparked widespread surprise and curiosity among citizens, propelling him to trend on social media. The nickname “Goliath” aptly reflects his extraordinary height, which has become a talking point across the nation.
In a recent interview with Citizen TV, Bradley opened up about the unique challenges he faces due to his size. Finding clothes that fit him is a constant struggle, and he has never worn shoes because it is nearly impossible to find a pair in his size, which ranges between 48 and 50. Despite these difficulties, Bradley remains humble and grounded, as attested by those who interact with him daily at the Kangemi Matatu stage.
During the interview, Bradley expressed his aspirations beyond his current hustle as a matatu conductor. He dreams of gaining fame and securing a job that would allow him to leave his current occupation. His humility and determination have endeared him to many, making him a beloved figure in his community.
Bradley’s story is a testament to the resilience and spirit of the Gen Z generation. As he continues to navigate the challenges of his unique stature, he remains an inspiration to many, proving that even the tallest among us can have the humblest of hearts.
