Zawadi Nyong’o, daughter of Kisumu Governor Anyang’ Nyong’o, is head over heels in love, and she is not shy about showing it.
On Tuesday, September 8, Zawadi took to Instagram to celebrate 49 months with her mzungu wife, sharing a series of warm photos that showed the couple holding colourful cocktails at what appeared to be a restaurant or bar, surrounded by lush tropical plants.
“Happy 49th monthaversary Habibi! Thank you for being my person. I love you a tiny teeny bit! 😘 💗,” she wrote in the post, which quickly drew attention on social media.
Zawadi’s love life in the spotlight
The anniversary post comes just weeks after details of Zawadi’s wedding to her mzungu wife emerged publicly.
She had come out as part of the LGBTQ community nearly a year before the marriage became known, and the revelation that she had since tied the knot sparked widespread conversation across Kenya.
Her father, Governor Anyang’ Nyong’o, is one of Kenya’s most prominent political figures, making Zawadi’s open celebration of her same-sex relationship a notable moment in a country where LGBTQ rights remain a deeply contested topic.
Zawadi shares her joy publicly
Despite the public attention, Zawadi appears unbothered, consistently sharing affectionate posts about her partner.
The 49-month milestone is a reflection of a relationship that stretches back several years, predating her very public coming out.
Her latest post racked up over 200 likes and dozens of comments, with followers weighing in on the couple’s evident happiness.
