On July 9, 2020, journalist Stephen Letoo marked a significant milestone in his life - his son Lyian Santino's first birthday. To celebrate this special occasion, Letoo and his family participated in a family photoshoot, donning traditional Maasai attire.
Letoo, a proud Maasai, draped himself and his family in lovely traditional khangas and captivating ornaments, blending in with nature. The photoshoot captured the beauty of their bond and the joy of their little family.
Lyian, the young son, was as cute as a button and resembled a tiny version of a Maasai warrior as he rocked his ancestors' attire and proudly yielded a decorated staff in his small hands. In one photo, Letoo showered the younging with love by holding onto him tightly, promising never to let him go.
The Citizen TV news reporter once described his baby boy as a little sun that brings forth light to the world. He and his wife Winnie Nadupoi announced the birth of their child through a cute family portrait that illustrated their deep love for their tiny human.
Letoo referred to his first child as God's opinion that life should go on. And in 2020, the journalist got the chance to celebrate his first Father's Day as a dad. Happy times.
