• Smoking is bad for the lungs.

Kenyan content creator Terence Creative is celebrating 5 years since he quit smoking.

He says that is the best decision he ever made adding that his lungs are happy.

Through his socials he penned

"Celebrating 5 years and 2 months today since I quit smoking (cigarette, weed,shisha) and other tobacco-related substances like lift, kuber, vape etc feels fresh and cool and my lungs are happy ." penned an excited Terence.

In the past, Terence revealed that he had trouble kissing his wife Milly before he stopped smoking.

This was because of the smelly stench he had.

“The saddest thing that I have never said in the years that I dated my wife, we were together for like five years. We never kissed properly. There is a stench from people who smoke. I can remember we only kissed like six times hizo siku zingine nilikuwa najibamba tu wacha nilambe shingo. It was so bad. Alafu when I quit smoking I didn’t even tell her because alikuwa ananitusi oh ukiacha sigara nitakukiss kila siku. So nikawacha sigara nikanyamaza for one month nikamkumbusha,” said Terence Creative.
