Voi Man Paints Ex-Girlfriend’s Name Across His Car and Blocks Highway Traffic Demanding Public Apology and Closure
If you thought heartbreak makes people cry quietly while eating ice cream, you have clearly never been to Voi.
Because what happened last month along the busy highway left motorists confused, boda bodas entertained, and traffic police completely exhausted.
A bright blue Toyota was parked right in the middle of the road.
Across the doors, bonnet, and even the side mirrors, someone had boldly painted:
“JANET, RETURN MY LOVE AND MY MONEY!”
Below it, in smaller letters:
“YOU PROMISED FOREVER!”
Drivers hooted. Passengers recorded. Vendors paused their biashara.
And sitting calmly on the bonnet like a man waiting for a bus was Daniel (not his real name), the now-famous “Highway Romantic Protester.”
Love, Loans and Loud Promises
Daniel had dated Janet for nearly two years. Their relationship looked perfect on social media. Matching outfits. Weekend getaways. Caption after caption about “power couple.”
But behind the filters was something else.
Daniel had financed most of their lifestyle. He paid rent. He bought a phone. He funded a small business that, according to him, was “for our future.”
Then one day—boom.
Janet stopped answering calls.
Blocked.
Vanished.
And two weeks later, photos surfaced online of her smiling next to another man described as a “long-time family friend.”
Family friend? Daniel nearly fainted.
When Closure Refused to Answer the Phone
Daniel tried everything.
He sent polite messages.
He sent emotional messages.
He even sent those long paragraphs that begin with “I don’t usually do this but…”
No response.
Worse still, he discovered Janet had moved houses—using furniture he had bought.
His friends advised him to move on.
But Daniel wasn’t just heartbroken.
He felt cheated, embarrassed, and financially drained.
“I didn’t just lose love,” he told a reporter later. “I lost investment!”
And that’s when the idea struck him.
If she wouldn’t respond privately, he would go public.
The Day Traffic Stopped for Love
Daniel painted the car at midnight.
At 7 a.m., he parked it across the highway and refused to move.
He demanded one thing:
“A public apology and my money back.”
People gathered like it was a live show. Some cheered. Some laughed. Others shouted advice:
“Bro, just heal!” “Brother, this is not an auction!”
Traffic police eventually arrived and persuaded him to clear the road.
But by then, videos were everywhere.
Daniel became a meme within hours.
