A Night to Remember: Atieno's Journey to Coast National Polytechnic
When Atieno was 19, her life took an unexpected turn on a fateful night at a Nairobi bus stop. She was en route to Mombasa, excited to join the Coast National Polytechnic. As she waited for the night bus, a charming stranger named Manga started conversing with her. They shared stories, dreams, and laughter, making Atieno's heart flutter. Manga even bought her a Fanta, but little did she know that things were about to take a dark twist.
At 8:00 PM, the bus to Mombasa was ready to depart, and Atieno began preparing to board. But Manga had other plans. He insisted that she stay with him, despite her heartfelt explanations about her family's sacrifice for her education. The tension escalated, and Manga's charming facade crumbled as he turned aggressive, even resorting to violence.
He declared, "You are mine tonight!" But Atieno, determined and empowered, fought back. She questioned why he offered her a soda if he didn't want her company. Their confrontation drew a crowd, and Atieno pleaded with them to call the police.
