Mama Ngina Kenyatta rarely steps into the public eye these days, so when she showed up at a wedding in a video shared on Wednesday, September 16, looking relaxed and radiant, it was always going to get people talking.
The former first lady attended the nuptials of a couple identified as Waithera and Twin, appearing in a classy green and black ensemble complete with a matching hat.
Which wedding did Kenyatta family attend?
She was all smiles as she greeted the newlyweds, and the warmth on her face throughout the celebration did not go unnoticed.
Former president Uhuru Kenyatta was also present, dressed casually in a patterned brown shirt and black trousers.
He was seen laughing with former first lady Margaret Kenyatta, and at one memorable moment, he leaned in to give the bride a gentle peck on the forehead, a gesture that spoke volumes about how close the Kenyatta family is to the couple.
Uhuru’s brother Muhoho was also spotted at the event, underlining just how personal the occasion was for the family.
Wedding content creator @createwithvic, who bills themselves as Kenya’s number one luxury wedding content creator, filmed the occasion in a candid, documentary style that captured the full energy of the day.
The footage, shot on the steps of a building, showed well-wishers, guests and photographers buzzing around the couple as the celebration unfolded after what the caption described as “a beautiful and eventful mass.”
The bride wore a flowing white gown, while the groom stood out in a striking green and khaki tuxedo.
The pair drove off from the venue in a white Mercedes-Benz convertible bearing a personalised “Waithera & Twin” sign, giving the send-off that cinematic touch.
Kenyans online were quick to react to the footage, with many zeroing in on Mama Ngina’s rare appearance and Uhuru’s affectionate gesture towards the bride.
