eehive of activities when a Luo went to pay dowry in style. It is true to say that
Jared Otieno from the Lake side had gone to pay dowry to Kendi Mwiti's parents in the Miraa region. It was not business as usual in Meru when FIVE CHOPPERS landed,
The party was a carnival of expensive delights, and even the region’s political elite were in attendance.
Jared went all out for the ceremony, and he even hired pricey corporate MC Jalango to host the function. Speaking to a local daily, Jalango said that Jared’s party brought Ndhiwa to a standstill.
“I trust this will be the wedding of the year. You should have seen the convoy of 18 Range Rovers and the Porsche Cayenne Jared was driven in. Literally, Ndhiwa came into a standstill. All hotels had been booked by the Meru team and we had to sleep in the cars. The cheapest drink was Black Label,” Jalang’o, the MC of the day, told a local daily.
In late May, Jared gave his fiancée the keys to their six-bedroom house – an act that symbolised that she had graduated from a girlfriend to a wife.
Otieno is expected to wed his flame Kendi Mwiti – the daughter of Dr Mwiti who is a popular scholar from Meru, in October, 2015.
