Octopizzo ideal date would be at River Nzoia

Many celebrities often choose a fancy restaurant with a nice vibe and ambiance for their ideal first date.

However, award-winning artist and humanitarian Henry Ohanga, popularly known as Octopizzo, has a unique preference.

He envisions a romantic setting by the serene waters of River Nzoia or any river. In a Q&A interview with Mpasho’s entertainment journalist Kalondu Musyimi, Octopizzo revealed that his beauty secret is swimming in the river.

His routine starts with waking up early and heading to the river while it’s still shrouded in mist. He enjoys the contrast of the water being warm on the inside but cold on the outside, creating a unique vibe that he really appreciates.

“I wake up, go to the river. Usually, in the mornings, the water has mist. The inside of the river is warm, but on the outside, it’s very cold. It’s a nice vibe,” he said.

Below are the highlights from a Q&A session with the musician:
