Celestine Ndinda, estranged wife of comedian Njugush, is exploring ways to generate income from her recently acquired container home. On 28 July 2026, she shared a TikTok video documenting her visit to a property in Nanyuki featuring three A-frame cabins.
The cabins, owned by a woman named Ruby, are built on a 50 by 100 plot and reportedly take about six months to develop, followed by three months of marketing before consistent bookings began. The rental rates range from KSh 8,000 during off-peak to KSh 10,000 in peak seasons, with full occupancy generating KSh 24,000 per night.
Ruby highlighted that the cabins attract guests seeking tranquility, natural views, and wildlife, with mornings offering scenic sights of Mount Kenya. She emphasized that the main appeal is the peaceful environment.
Inspired by this model, Celestine is considering how to transform her container home into a profitable venture. The video has sparked conversations online, with many Kenyans expressing interest in similar projects on their own idle land.
