MP Peter Salasya to open church for Manzi wa Kibera, turns down proposal
Mumias East’s first-time Parliamentarian Peter Salasya has been trending after announcing that he was looking for a wife to settle down with.
This opened Pandora’s box of women proposing marriage to him.
The second woman to go viral in doing this is social media personality Manzi wa Kibera who also carried a placard to Nairobi’s Central Business District on October 19, 2022, in which she asked the outspoken Member of Parliament to marry her.

In another follow-up tweet, Mr. Salasya bashed Manzi wa Kibera for her dressing while proposing marriage to him.
“Next time you carry a placard, you try to put on a decent cloth. At least I be proud of you and Kenyans at large. Those people I serve are so strict on image presentation. Manzi wa Kibera, I wish (you) all the best. One day I will come we fellowship together in church,” added Mr. Salasya.
The tweets have since been deleted.
