On Friday, August 2, 2019, former Nairobi Woman Representative Rachel Shebesh eulogized Edwin Abonyo, the widower of Bomet Governor Joyce Laboso, at the Bomet Green Stadium.
Shebesh described Abonyo as a 'loving husband who never left her side during difficult times', according to Governor Laboso's own words.
Shebesh's praise for Abonyo did not stop there. She described him as a man from a special cloth of husbands made in heaven, unlike other husbands who 'come walking'.
“Edwin you are a true reflection of love. Joyce told us that she is luckier than all of us combined and I can agree. You are those husbands that come from heaven; ours came walking,” said Ms Shebesh.
Her words sparked a conversation online, with some men wondering where their significant others placed them in this 'heavenly' category.
