Remember The Couple From The KTN Piece Called My Bukusu Love? Muhindi’s Family Goes To Court To Stop Marriage

Do you remember the piece KTN carried called “My Bukusu Love” aye, ofcourse you do. It was the one where a young Muhindi lady had left her wealthy family preferring instead to live in squalor with her Bukusu lover. For those not indigenous to Kenya who’re wondering why such a story made news, well, it’s because Kenyan Indians and indigenous Kenyans do not relate outside of a professional capacity.

And after all the apologists and political correctness double-speak agents are done ranting, tell them to shut up and listen to Uncle Chim Tuna. And the truth, the gospel according to Uncle Chim Tuna, patron saints of all douchebags is that Indians and African Kenyans do not mingle.

And proof of that is the fact that the family of the young Sarika Patel are fighting a legal battle to stop her from wedding Timothy Khamala. Wealthy businessman Chabbadia Patel has filed an injunction at the Bungoma East District Commissioner’s office to stop the wedding of his daughter Sarika to Timothy Khamala.

The move now halts plans for the two lovebirds to tie the knot in a civil marriage that had been slated for Tuesday 26 after the much publicised rare love affair in Nang’ina village of Webuye.

The government had opened a 21-day window for anyone with objection to the union to file a petition before Monday. Authorities kept contents of the objection from the media but insiders told The Nairobian that among other things, the father, in his petition, claimed Timothy had kidnapped Sarika and that his family is unaware of her whereabouts.

But when this writer spoke to her on phone, she confirmed that she was in Webuye and has been residing in Nang’ina village all along. Not surprisingly, the new twist has left Sarika, 24, crestfallen. “It has irked me. This is the day I have been waiting for all my life.

I already made a choice and everyone knows about it. I will not change my mind,” Sarika told The Nairobian during an interview. “We had planned to make it a small occasion with those expected to attend of course being mostly Timothy’s family. This is a setback,” she added.

Sarika first met Timothy when he came to work at their family’s business enterprise in Webuye as a casual labourer. His employment was, however, terminated when their love affair was discovered and he remains jobless. But he vows he is not about to turn his back on Sarika. “There have been numerous efforts to separate me from Sarika, but by now, the writing should be on the wall. I can’t live without her. Her father had actually given consent for us to go on with the wedding. How things changed is a mystery to me,” said Timothy. The two lovers have faced opposition from several quarters, especially from Sarika’s family.
