Tanzania\u2019s rising young tycoon, Chief Godlove, stirred fresh headlines during a recent trip to Nairobi after openly declaring an unusual \u2014 and intense \u2014 affection for reptiles.<\/p>\n
The flamboyant businessman, famous for his fleet of luxury Mercedes cars, toured the Nairobi Snake Park in the company of content creator 2Mbili, where he revealed just how deeply attached he is to the cold-blooded creatures he keeps back home.<\/p>\n
Godlove admitted he had missed his reptiles so much that he almost cut his Nairobi visit short just to return to Tanzania and see his snakes.<\/p>\n
According to the tycoon, his bond with snakes goes far beyond a hobby \u2014 he believes they are tied to his fortune.<\/p>\n
\u201cA snake is what brings me money,\u201d he declared without hesitation.<\/p>\n
Godlove, who describes himself as a \u201cbig twin,\u201d insists that snakes cannot harm him. To him, they are more loyal and trustworthy than people.<\/p>\n
\u201cI would rather keep a snake than keep a human,\u201d he said, arguing that humans can be malicious, while a snake only bites in self-defence or when it senses a threat.<\/p>\n
During his tour of the Kenyan reptile centre, Godlove moved comfortably among the snakes, handling one with ease and emphasising the importance of treating the animals gently. A striking white snake caught his eye, and he openly admired it.<\/p>\n
\u201cI love snakes more than anything,\u201d he confessed.<\/p>\n
He even attempted to buy one of the reptiles at the park, only to be informed that all the animals are government property.<\/p>\n
Still determined, the tycoon inquired about the legal requirements for owning snakes in Kenya. Park officials explained that the Kenya Wildlife Service issues permits \u2014 including for venomous species \u2014 but only to applicants with proper facilities and approvals. Godlove now plans to pursue a licence.<\/p>\n
The visit also offered a behind-the-scenes look at how the park\u2019s reptiles are cared for. Godlove was introduced to several species, including a massive python. Curious, he asked what such a giant eats.<\/p>\n
Handlers explained that the largest snakes consume about seven kilograms of food once a week, noting that overfeeding can cause the meal to rot inside the snake\u2019s body.<\/p>\n
He also encountered a harmless species that feeds solely on eggs and was shown one of the park\u2019s oldest residents \u2014 a snake kept there since 1967.<\/p>\n
Godlove ended the tour by holding a small, tame snake, claiming his \u201cpure heart\u201d enables him to calm the animals. For him, snakes make the ideal companions: quiet, clean, and \u2014 in his eyes \u2014 far more trustworthy than people.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
