On a quiet afternoon in Kiambu, what began as a routine work call spiralled into a moment that would soon grip TikTok timelines and WhatsApp groups alike.
It was an ordinary Tuesday – the kind that moves without incident. Paperwork. Phone calls. Predictability.
Yet inside the stark, fluorescent-lit corridors of Kinoo Police Station, something extraordinary was quietly unfolding.
For most couples, proposals bloom under soft candlelight, beside ocean waves, or high above city skylines.
But for Jackson Mungwari – a Kenyan Defence Forces (KDF) soldier known online as Gamaray Kizazi – love demanded a stage far less predictable and far more dramatic.
He chose a police station.
The arrest that stopped a heart
Two years into what he describes as a “beautiful and soulful” relationship, Jackson crafted a plan worthy of prime-time drama.
With the cooperation of local officers, he constructed a scenario calibrated to shock before it soothed.
The pretext was chillingly believable: a work-related investigation involving a missing customer account. His girlfriend, Judith Nyaga – a banker in Lavington – was summoned to answer questions.
What awaited her was not paperwork.
It was a staged arrest.
In a now-viral TikTok clip, Judith appears visibly shaken as uniformed officers question her. Confusion clouds her face. The tension feels real – because to her, it was. Moments later, she is ushered into a holding cell.
Phone still in hand. Voice trembling.
“Please come to Kinoo Police Station,” she says in a hurried call. “I don’t really know what I did, but just come.”
In that instant, panic eclipsed everything else.

One knee, one ring, one yes
Then came the pivot.
Minutes later, the KDF soldier arrived at the station. But instead of demanding answers or protesting her innocence, he did something that froze time.
At the station’s gate, beneath the watch of officers who moments earlier had played their roles to perfection, he dropped to one knee.
Fear dissolved into disbelief. Disbelief melted into tears.
The very place that had moments earlier felt cold and foreboding transformed into something cinematic – almost surreal.
With words layered in promise and devotion, Jackson asked Judith to be his wife.
Officers erupted into cheers. Onlookers held their breath.
She said yes.
A ring slid onto her finger by her KDF soldier boyfriend. They embraced – long and tightly, as though sealing not just a proposal but a story neither would ever forget.

And just like that, a holding cell became a launching pad for forever.
For netizens watching online, the scene struck a chord. Some called it bold. Others called it outrageous. But nearly all agreed on one thing: it was unforgettable.
Because sometimes, love doesn’t whisper from candlelit corners.
Sometimes, it storms into a police station – and walks out engaged.
