The man, identified as Chris wedded the love of his life on Saturday. 

In a video posted on YouTube by NTV Kenya, Sonko can be seen handing over bundles of the new currency to his ex-bodyguard. 

The flamboyant city boss reached out to his pocket to pick the new currency notes of Sh300, 000 which he claimed were fresh from the bank.

He, however, joked that he was trying to get rid of the old currency notes stacked in his house which will be faced out by October 1st. 

During the wedding, the city boss jokingly claimed that he has lots of money in his house which he wants to get rid of. 

Sonko went ahead to advise the newlyweds to tolerate each other in every situation just like he and his wife Primrose Mbuvi have done for the past 20 years or so.
