Joined by Sports and Youth Affairs Cabinet Secretary Ababu Namwamba, Riggy G hopped on the public transport and readily engaged in a lighthearted chat with NRG Radio journalists. Who are Riggy G's favourite artistes? He proudly declared his love for reggae music, confessing his affinity for both the iconic Bob Marley and the British band UB40.  "I'm a big fan of UB40 and a huge Bob Marley fan," Riggy G confessed, his enthusiasm evident. "I love his music." When playfully challenged to belt out a Marley tune, the Deputy President humbly admitted his vocal limitations: "Singing isn't my forte, but I'm a dancing machine! My sound's down, you know." The conversation continued in this jovial vein, with Riggy G extending an invitation for a more in-depth chat at another time. He then exited the matatu with Ababu. It's important to note that the matatu remained stationary during the interaction.
