"I still want a man who earns more than Sh90,000; I just can’t date anyone earning less than I do. I mean Sh90,000 is just my rent. Don’t get me wrong money isn’t everything but where I draw the line is how this person is treating me. Having a lot of money does not mean that you get to control me. I want to be able to pursue my dreams and be the greatest person I can be," she said in an interview with Nation.

When asked if she is single, she said:

"I am single unless there is a billionaire who wants me right now. My ideal man has to make more money than I do, have a good car, and a house in the suburbs, and he should be generous.

In the interview with Nation, Liz revealed that she is the one who asked Mutua for his phone number to book an interview with him in the future.

She divulged that Mutua did not come to greet her alone but to interact with journalists who had come to cover the event at State House.

The video of her engaging Mutua went viral on social media sparking mixed reactions.
