What’s Ambogo’s daughter’s name?
“My greatest testimony is Ashley. I love you, my girl,” she captioned the video as she splashed cash on her daughter.
Ashley was dressed in her school uniform and had not yet fastened her seatbelt as her mum showered her with money during the heartwarming moment.
She looked mostly unfazed but smiled slightly as the notes fell on her head, face, and eventually settled on her hands, which rested on her belly.
She glanced at the falling money, then at the phone camera, and finally at her mother, remaining steady in her seat.

Ashley also had her black backpack placed on her lap as she leaned back comfortably in the fancy-looking car.
Some of the money fell to the floor, but her mum picked it up and placed it back on her daughter’s lap before the short clip ended.
Speaking to TUKO.co.ke, Ambogo opened up about her parenting journey, explaining why the moment meant so much to her.
“I’m a fully independent single mum of one biological child, but I’m also a guardian and sponsor to many children in primary school, secondary school, colleges, and universities. It is all by God’s grace,” she said.
