Nominated Senator Karen Nyamu stepped out in style as she joined a long list of political heavyweights and celebrities at Trans Nzoia Senator Allan Chesang’s engagement ceremony to Chanelle Kittony.

The glamorous event, held in Trans Nzoia County, marked the couple’s koito — a traditional wedding ceremony — where Chesang officially tied the knot just a day after delivering dowry to his bride’s family.

The event’s theme was lilac with cream accents, and guests did not disappoint. Among those in attendance were President William Ruto, National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetang’ula, CS Wycliffe Oparanya, Senator Ledama Ole Kina, and Governor James Orengo.

The President revealed that despite his busy schedule, he made a deliberate choice to attend the ceremony, noting that strong families form the foundation of a strong nation.

A Call to Responsibility

Ruto also used the platform to advise young men to embrace responsibility through marriage, saying many were “enjoying marriage perks without commitment.”

“If you are man enough, you must be man enough to be responsible. The woman you love, marry her; otherwise, stop wasting people’s time,” he added, drawing laughter from guests.

He further urged Chesang and Chanelle to get kids immediately, joking that “Papa wa Roma said we are expecting grandchildren.”
