The Central Organization of Trade Union (COTU) Secretary General Francis Atwoli has revealed what he told his children after marrying a third wife.
The veteran trade unionist recently married KTN Swahili anchor, Mary Kilobi, who is 35 years younger than him.
Speaking on Thursday, the flamboyant trade unionist narrated that after marrying the sassy journalist he called his children for a meeting and introduced her to them and insisted they must treat her like their mother.
Atwoli has 17 children among them Dr Lukoye Atwoli who is a consultanting psychiatrist and Dean School of Medicine at Moi University.
"When I recently got married I assembled all my children and told them here is your younger mother," he said.
"Otherwise they can think the younger lady is their equal and forget calling her mama," Atwoli added during an event at COTU headquarters in Nairobi.https://mobile.twitter.com/KTNNewsKE/status/1088366242614968327?p=v
In an exclusive interview with Citizen TV late last year, the COTU boss revealed he met Kilobi when she was working in Kampala in 2005 and got attracted to her.
He promised to marry her once she became of age and after waiting for 13 years, Atwoli fulfilled his promise when he married her in 2018.
"After her stay in Uganda she came back to Kenya, got a job with KTN. And because of the nature of work I do, you need somebody to assist you, you want somebody to rush and get you something and it must be a person you trust. She is my assistant, she is my lover, she is my wife and she got to take care of me. Am a stupid lover," Atwoli said during JKL Show.https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jRyVwZu3V50
