Marry a Kenyan at your own Risk

   


 Marriage is meant to be a lovely experience. After all, according to the Bible, "he who finds a wife finds a wonderful thing." Marriage, on the other hand, isn't always pleasant. There are apparently clans in Kenya whose women are off-limits to guys looking for a happily-ever-after marriage. Women from some Kikuyu clans, for example, are known for their 'headaches,' while others are known for their 'quick and furious' separations, even before the totos crawl. An aunt in the know might point out to a love-struck guy that even the girl's grandmother 'went away' 500 times throughout her marriage to persuade him of the hazards.

    But, in the twenty-first century, can ancient notions about tribal tribes with a "evil eye" and many others loaded with "unmarriable" women still retain moisture? Does the 'mahewa generation' do thorough background checks wives to see whether they belong to the correct clans? Another question: do the motives why some tribes were no-go areas still retain moisture 50 years since independence, despite advances in education and exposure? You'll be surprised to learn that very little has altered.
