A 28 year-old Kenyan woman who took to the streets of Nairobi looking for a husband while carrying a placard in August seems to have set a precedent for other women to follow suit.
In photos that went viral on social media on Thursday, another woman, Cate Gachara, 27, is seen on an unidentified street carrying a similar advert, calling for a potential husband who matches her requirements to make a bid.
In the placard, Gachara says she is a mother of three and categorically states she wants to be married to a white man. She also boldly makes it clear that she is ready to be a good wife accompanied by a cell phone number.
She further describes herself as a God-fearing woman and warns jokers to keep off.
“Looking for white husband… Cathe Gachara – 27 Yrs old… God-fearing lady… Single mum of three (3)… Ready to be a good wife… Call me – 0718130559… No jokers please…,” read Cate’s placard.
In August, a lady who identified herself as Nyambura was captured holding a placard showing that she was scouting for a husband on one hand, while holding a young girl’s hand believed to be her daughter, aged 7.
“Need for a husband pris.Nyambura 28 years. I have a girl child 7 years ” Nyambura’s sign read in part.
Reports indicate that she received hundreds of calls and texts following the advert.

Ready to be a good wife? Wow! And you have three kids at 27. God forbid! You will find some nuts if you’re are lucky.

That’s right, the wealthy…
That’s right, the wealthy mzungus does not look in a black woman’s directions unless you are Naomi Campbell or Prince Harry ‘s Girlfriend( actress and more white than black) and those you see in Kenya mangangaring on Moi Avenue or actually vacationing in some resorts that I can afford in MSA are just middle class earners. The real mzungu with money is not dining and wine with wananchi kama sisi , they are flying over the Nanyuki, Mara, Aberdares etc exclusive enclaves or somewhere in exclusive resorts in Lamu 🙂

Crazy world. She doesn’t know what she’s asking for. Some people still think that white is better. I challenge her to go back to her roots and there you will find her match.

Waoh why not just a man ,…
Waoh why not just a man , why a white man? I pity my fellow ladies who think a mzungu is a God. I have a few friends married to “wazungus” and all that Ridge Forrester romances on the Bold and the Beautiful is just that , act on TV , the reality is nothing like that and most are just boring dudes and most are just middle crass he he he…. and crass is intended meaning. I personally , mzungu is not my cuppa, I like my Kenyan brothers well some not those who talk trash like some here…..
Haha you made my day no…
Haha you made my day no dark meat she doesn’t mind age size as long as ni mzungu
Heh he I know even some of…
Heh he I know even some of our brothers who marry whites will parade their enormous overweight wives on facebook and their mulatoo kids doing what normal kids do or go to in America and the likes will be like a 100 like and loves . Then compare to a normal kenyan dude with his brown family doing the same and gets like 2 likes ( ha ha ha) and if the wifey was overweight nyeuthi mama, she would never make the FB page .. ha haha . Some of our brothers and sister still have have inferiority complex from ukoloni . I ‘m very observant on this … kwanza in those Kenyan gatherings, everybody swoons over those watotos and somehow behaves well with a sheepish smile towards the “white ” spouse but the normal family, no one even says hi to the kids or mama , its like ah…yeah……..
There is even a certain…
There is even a certain emphasis on the importance of being married to a white – the sentence will always begin, oh she is married to a white man or he is married to a white woman – an opener to glorify such an achievement 🙂
Really! are you serious…
Really! are you serious.Africans/blacks we have aterrible image problem. You continue to give mzungu fuel to laugh at us…
The image mwafrica has on mzungu is,” mzungu is rich,and generous, mzungu will treat his wife with tender gloves. mzungu ,does not beat his wife ,and that his wife holds the key to the joint bank account…It is unfortunate that Msungu is reading this comments in amuzement.

Lady, if you are God fearing…
Lady, if you are God fearing, why dont you pray,or go to church,and look for a spouse there.And if you have prayed,did God tell you to do what you are doing?
I hardly think that a street is designed for such serious issues.By the way, what is “God fearing”.I have heard that God works in mysterious ways so I wonder how he takes it if one pray specifically to marry another race,instead of “God almight,please answer my prayers for agood ,loving,and ‘God fearing’ husband…”
I dont know if Mwakilishi can relay this massage to this lady,but I can get her anice mzungu if she can convince me that wazingu men are better that africans,in whatever categories/traits, she looks for in a man.And would she take up on an african man who has all the requirements except skin color?Ican line up afew for her.
And allll the ugly black men…

Lady why do you want a mzungu.Is it the money or are you looking to create the next tiger woods or Drake. At 27 with 3 kids you need to take it slow. Men white or black are the same nobody is dumb enough to take on such baggage.Most probably you are looking to be an escort and the type of women who do this kinds of jobs do not parade openly on the streets

Obamas was born of white and african parents . Why do you care . she does not need your advise .Everyone has a right to lead a life they choose. Insulting Kids who did not choose where to be born is unethical and irresponsible but we have so many of us who are disturbed and ethics do not ring bells in their collapsed minds
