President William Ruto has sent a warm message of congratulations to Jomo Gecaga and Lola Hannigan following their quiet wedding, describing their union as a triumph of genuine love amid life's fast pace.
In a message to the newlyweds, the President wished the couple a marriage filled with joy, peace and lasting devotion.
"Warmest congratulations to Lola Hannigan and Jomo Gecaga as you step into the beautiful covenant of marriage," President Ruto said. "May your shared journey be rich with joy, peace, and enduring devotion; and may your bond stand as a gentle reminder that even amid life's relentless pace, genuine love always finds a way to triumph."
The wedding, which was kept away from the public eye, was held in an intimate setting and attended only by close friends and family. Among the notable guests was retired President Uhuru Kenyatta, who graced the ceremony in celebration of his nephew's milestone moment.
True to the couple's preference for privacy, details of the ceremony were closely guarded, with only a select group invited to witness the union. The low-key affair stood in contrast to the couple's high-profile family background, underscoring their desire to keep the occasion personal and meaningful.
The wedding comes just weeks after Jomo and Lola welcomed their third child, marking a season of profound personal milestones for the couple. News of the pregnancy had been shared in October during Jomo's birthday celebrations, when Lola posted a touching tribute that doubled as an announcement they were expecting another child together.
In the emotional message, Lola poured out her appreciation for Jomo, praising his love, care and dedication to their family. She thanked him for being an exceptional father and partner, noting that words could barely capture the depth of her feelings. Describing him as her calm, her constant and her home, Lola's message offered a rare glimpse into the private bond that has defined their relationship.
