Why girls like Kwamboka are scary

By Tony M

Last Sunday, a young lady who goes by the name Sheila Kwamboka was voted out of a reality show called Big Brother. I was proud when Kwamboka was chosen to be a Big Brother housemate, she seemed a most urbane young woman on the face of it, and second, let’s face it, she’s from my Gusii ethnicity — just the same way we are all proud of, say, Jelimo, but the people of Kapsabet are even prouder. Kwamboka, 23, is the kind of young woman many a young man would want to marry — from a fresh out of college 25 year old, to a 35-year-old man finally ready to settle down. But then she represented quite the un-ideal kind of woman for matrimony in the house. The worrisome thing is that Kwamboka represents the ‘true face’ of many of our 20-something girls, which is why a lot of guys are now going for 30-plus women. Although those ones have their own unique set of aggravations that we’ll look at another Saturday.
