After 34 years of service, Hesbon Imbwaka, a chief gardener at the German Embassy in Kenya, chose multiple chickens as his retirement gift over a humorous suggestion of 68 cars.

• Imbwaka opted for chickens to start a poultry business, despite Ambassador Sebastian Groth's playful suggestion of one Mercedes Benz and one BMW for each year of service.
• The story, first shared by Ambassador Groth on August 1, gained significant social media traction, leading to public interest in Imbwaka's retirement package.
• Groth confirmed the chicken choice on Friday, August 29, highlighting Imbwaka's "real Luhya-spirit."
