A heartwarming video of former politician Ferdinand Waititu, popularly known as “Baba Yao,” and his wife, Susan Ndung’u, sharing a romantic moment has captured the attention of Kenyans.
A Marriage Spanning Over Two Decades
The couple, who have been married for over 25 years, have three children: Brian, Josephine, and Monica.
Despite their long-standing marriage, Susan Ndung’u kept a relatively low profile until 2023, when the two were implicated in the KSh 588 million road tender saga.
The case thrust the Waititu family into the spotlight, generating significant public interest.
On Saturday, December 7, Ferdinand and Susan attended a couples’ event where participants introduced their partners before sharing a kiss. When it was their turn, Waititu introduced himself before handing the microphone to Susan.
“I’m Mrs. Waititu baba yao,” Susan said confidently, sparking cheers from the audience. The couple then shared a kiss, drawing applause and admiration from the attendees.
