On July 14, 2019, Kirinyaga Governor Anne Mumbi Waiguru and her fiancé, lawyer Kamotho Waiganjo, finally tied the knot in a high-profile traditional wedding at Kiamugumo primary school in Kirinyaga County.

The wedding, which was attended by President Uhuru Kenyatta, ODM leader Raila Odinga, Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka, Senators, Members of Parliament, and other politicians, marked a significant milestone in the couple's relationship.

Anne Mumbi and Kamotho Waiganjo met at the Likoni ferry in Mombasa County 10 years ago, and as they say, the rest is history.

After a decade-long courtship, Kamotho proposed to Anne in February 2019 and paid dowry as per Kikuyu custom, commonly known as Ruracio.
