26-year-old Nic is a television producer from Nairobi with a double degree: a Major in Film and Screen Production and a Minor in Human Resource Management.
"Happily Single", he speaks Kiswahili and English and loves foreign films, thrillers and comedies. He says his favourite place in Kenya is the Masai Mara: "I love the peace and tranquility I experienced whilst there – I've never had such an experience before".
The best thing about his country, according to Nic, is "the diversity of people and cultures – we have over 40 tribes and a large group of expatriates and 2nd generation Kenyans who find common ground".
Nic entered Big Brother Amplified "to use it as a platform to gain some form of recognition of character among the African people and pursue my dream of entertaining Africa on a grand scale – the money wasn't a bad incentive too".
He says that viewers should watch him because they'll not know what to expect from him. "I am cheeky, spontaneous, funny, intelligent and a good listener, plus I am a bit of a flirt, so that should get their attention when they tune in to watch this crazy guy from Kenya."
If he wins, he'll invest wisely in his future and give his tithe to a good cause.
His mother is his role model. He says of her: "a great part of my formative years were spent with my mother. I saw how strong she had to be, to be both mother and father to me at times, and what she went through as a single mother made her stronger and made me who I am today".
She also gave him the best advice he has ever received: "suffer now, enjoy later".
