It takes real men to penetrate some walls and marry certain families' daughters.
Literally and figuratively speaking, such walls, erected to high levels always makes it difficult to steal hearts from such homesteads.
But to one Benson Gatu, penetrating such areas seems like just entering into a mall, pick a pair of underpants you admire and head home.
To start, Gatu was thrust to the public limelight after he was romantically involved with Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko's elder daughter, Saumu Sonko.
The Sonkos are notoriously media-magnetic due to their flashy lifestyle.
This made Gatu and his flame fodder for gossip blogs, often splashing sensational stories of their romantic escapades.
Things however went south and the two love birds parted ways, albeit painfully.
To mark their short love story, Saumu was left with a baby girl to fed alone as she whiles time away at her father's mansion.
The Gatu-Saumu break-up is no longer a story anyway, the story now is that Gatu has raided another Governor's home.
And it's not far from the city.
He just jumped one county from the city and stormed Murang'a with his killer smile.
Here, Gatu has charmed the heart of sassy Wanja Lameck and swept her off her feet.
She is now the soft-spoken new catch.
Sources said Gatu has even paid part of the dowry and negotiations are ongoing.
Netizens went abuzz with Gatu's penchant for governor's cute daughters.
