Anyang Nyong’o son dresses like a LGBTQ member at Beyonce concert

Posted on September 4, 2023 by Ozymandias

Junior Nyong’o, the son of Kisumu Governor Anyang’ Nyong’o, is trending online after posting photos of himself wearing a crop top and tight shiny pants at Beyoncé’s highly-anticipated world tour.

The photos quickly went viral, with many people commenting on Nyong’o’s bold fashion choice. Some people praised his confidence, while others criticized his outfit.

Nyong’o himself seemed to be unfazed by the criticism, and he even responded to some of the comments on social media. He wrote, “I pay them all in dust ✨🪄🧿👑👽 are we collectively EVER going to recover from this RENAISSANCE era???”

Nyong’o’s outfit is a reflection of the current fashion trends, which are increasingly gender-fluid and body-positive. Crop tops are no longer just for women, and men are increasingly wearing them as a way to express their personal style.

Nyong’o’s outfit is also a reminder that fashion is ultimately about self-expression. There is no right or wrong way to dress, and everyone should feel comfortable wearing what they want.

Whether you love or hate Nyong’o’s outfit, there is no denying that he is confident and stylish. He is setting a positive example for young people by showing them that it is okay to be different and to express themselves through fashion.

Lupita Nyongo’s 10-point message after her father was sworn in as Kisumu governor

Posted on August 22, 2017August 22, 2017 by Martin Oduor

Anyang Nyong’o took oath of office on Monday August 21^st at ceremony that was held at Jomo Kenyatta Sport Ground in Kisumu CBD.

Nyong’o floored former governor Jack Ranguma to win Kisumu governor seat with 266,850 votes (62.95%) against Ranguma’s 152,783 votes (36.04%).

Hollywood actress Lupita Nyong’o, who stayed mum during electioneering period, has finally spoken to congratulate her father on his inauguration day.

Below is Lupita’s 10-point message:

Today is the day my father gets sworn in as the Governor of Kisumu County in Kenya. I thank all those who voted for him and wish him the very best as he embarks on this new journey of socio-political representation.

To celebrate this day from afar, I reflect on the 10 Things My Daddy Told Me When I Was A Kid That Gave Me Confidence:

1.You are smart: I took this to mean both that I was dressed well (We Kenyans say “smart” for “well-dressed”), but also that I was intelligent. It always made me feel special and valuable.

2.It will be OK: He said this whenever I was sad with the little burdens of my childhood (a fight with my friends, a broken doll, a lost favorite piece of clothing). He also said this when I was concerned with the big burdens of his adulthood (detention without trial, house arrests, caught in tear gas during violent riots). Daddy said this to me as he held me close and I always felt a sense of comfort and security from him.

3.You can do anything: Daddy never EVER made me feel limited by my sex.

4.Do whatever you want to do; just do it to excellence: Dreaming out loud was something he encouraged.

5.Knowledge is power: He ALWAYS reads and he is a walking example of how the power of an education never comes to an end.

6.Show me: My Daddy loves to learn from his children. He is not afraid to admit what he does not know.

7.Consider the other side: there is always two sides to a coin. Being able to identify the other side of an argument makes yours stronger. It also makes you more empathetic.

8.You must stand up for what you believe in: This is a fundamental lesson from my father. He lives by it. It is why he serves: To literally make the world a better place.

9.Very Good! ‘A’ Minus: This was his way of saying that I did well, but also jokingly reminding me that there is always room for improvement.

10.Daddy loves baby: He has said this to me all my life. A reminder that he loves me, yes, but also that I will always be his little girl.

Daddy, congratulations! Baby loves Daddy!

Jack Ranguma’s daughter hits out at Lupita Nyong’o after her open letter endorsing her father..here are some of the mean things she said

Posted on April 24, 2017April 24, 2017 by Irari Ngugi

In an open letter which was aired in a 3 part series across Facebook, Lupita Nyong’o poured her heart out and urged Kisumu residents to vote for her father, Anyang Nyong’0.

And why? because he was an outstanding man with an impeccable track record to show for.

Now before we could internalize the whole letter, Jack Ranguma’s daughter Tanya who is also based in the States has responded and not in the nicest of ways.

Just like the way her father is engaged in a bitter feud with Anyang Nyong’o, she’s on the verge of getting into one with Lupita Nyong’o after calling her out on what she termed as utter bullshit; literally.

“Based on her statements, Lupita should really be a Ranguma supporter, because the developments she has witnessed in Kisumu over the last few years are actually things that my father has done without any help from Anyang Nyong’o. “ Tanya said as first reported by Nairobi News.

And she didn’t end it there, Nooo…she continued.

“He(Prof Nyong’o also represented Seme in parliament for 20 years and his development record according to CDF records was pathetic” She ended it.

Let the games begin *sits at the corner and sips tea*

Scores of people were injured at ODM rally in Migori town yesterday April 3^rd 2017. The rally which was held at Posta grounds was meant to drum up support for Junet Mohamed’s re-election bid.

Mombasa governor Hassan Joho, Kisumu Senator Anyang Nyong’o, Siaya Senator James Orengo, Babu Owino and several other ODM legislators were in attendance.

What started as a peaceful rally turned into bloody violence when Migori Governor Okoth Obado and his supporters stormed Junet’s re-election rally.

Apparently the Migori Governor felt sidelined and claimed he had not been informed of the rally. The supporters of the two rival factions clashed and police were forced to intervene.

Professor Anyang Nyong’o was found buried in wreckage of what was left of the stage, it’s not clear whether he suffered serious injuries.

Mombasa Governor Hassan Joho escaped bullets as his bodyguard was shot in the leg. His car was shot at three times, with one bullet hitting the windscreen.

Later in the day, MPs Mohamed, his Mbita counterpart Millie Odhiambo, former Minister Ochillo Ayacko, and Migori ODM chairman, Philip Makabongo, also claimed that the violence was aimed at harming Joho.
