Kenyan couples take up Sossion challenge and it’s hilarious
Kenyan couples borrowed a leaf from Kenyan National Union of Teachers (Knut) boss Wilson Sossion by going online and affirming fidelity to the partners.
Mr Sossion and his wife Vivianne Kenduiywa had on Friday released a video that captured them locked in a warm embrace in their Bomet home.
“We are here in Bomet and happy and what is in the paper are lies and we shall sue the newspaper for malicious damage,” Mr Sossion says in the video.
This was in response to a story published by weekly paper that claimed Mr Sossion’s 11-month marriage to Mr Kenduiywa had collapsed due to her infideliy.
Mr Sossion has since said he will sue the newspaper.
Kenyan couples also took to Twitter to affirm fidelity to their partners by posting videos and photos in similar fashion.
