In the tranquil village of Eshiaka, deep within Kakamega County, the sun's golden rays have already painted the sky. Patrick Weta, 46, and his second wife, Dorine, embark on their daily routine of drawing water from a nearby borehole.
As they welcome us into their modest home, they lay the foundation for a story of love and sacrifice. Their shared laughter and how they seamlessly share responsibilities in their household paint a picture of a profound connection.
Weta is a polygamous man with two wives, each blessed with four children; two boys and two girls. He decided to undergo a vasectomy in 2008 after the eighth child was born.
