Siaya Governor James Orengo's son Michael Orengo is officially off the market.
Michael held his beautiful traditional wedding (dowry payment) otherwise known as Nyombo among the Luo community on Saturday, September 9, 2023, in a private ceremony in Vihiga County.
The county boss and his wife Betty Murungi - alongside other high-profile politicians - accompanied their son to negotiate for the bride price and traditionally wed his lover Samatha Luseno.
