Governor's father, 84, married 30-year-old woman because 'there are things his children cannot do for him'

At 84 years of age, Mzee Christopher Rugut Kipkemoi has eaten his fair share of salt. The octogenarian is in his sunset years, that magical age where a man should be whiling the rest of his years listening to birds, watching cows chewing the cud and chicken strutting in his homestead.

Barring the nagging illnesses of old age, this is the best time of life— the idiocies of youth and lost dreams of mid-life crisis long gone – replaced by a cold reality and understanding of life. It is the age of wisdom.
