27-Year-Old Kenyan Man Stuns Online Users after Marrying Two Wives in One Wedding Ceremony

A 27-year-old Kenyan man from Kajiado County has stunned social media users after marrying two women in an ecstatic traditional wedding ceremony held on December 11th.
Tom Junior Mako exchanged vows with his two wives, Elizabeth Simaloi, 25, and Joyce Tikoiyan, 23. He says they have been living together under the same roof in the past one year after which they agreed to solemnize their threesome relationship.
“I lived with both of them under the same roof in my Kajiado home for one year – 2017 – before I was convinced to exchange wedding vows with them. Marriage should not be something that one enters into and regrets later. So, I had to rehearse a mock marriage setting with them so that I get to know exactly how they would behave if I married them. In that one year, I got to find out their excitement, worries, fears, strengths, weaknesses, anger levels and general character. I was, thereafter, convinced that I can live with both of them as my wives,” Mako says during an interview with a local news outlet.
He also clarifies that his was a traditional wedding ceremony and not a white wedding as social media reports allege.
"I want to clear the air. My wedding was customary and had nothing to do with the Church. There are people posting misleading information on social media that my wedding was presided over by pastors," he adds.
He argues that marrying two wives is better than having one wife and other secret lovers out there.
"This is a message I'm sending to modern cheating husbands who pretend to love one woman and yet they have others on the side. I'm being sincere to my wives because I will not have any other reason to marry another woman. I believe the two will satisfy me."
Mako is now considered a hero among the Maasai community since no other man has ever married two wives in one ceremony in the past.
“It took me a lot of convincing to do. I am, however, glad that my efforts paid off,” says Mako.
The Vicenarian says he would love to take his two wives on honeymoon but lack of finances means they will not be having one.
“Tough economic times have condemned me and my wives to my residential home in Kajiado. For now, I cannot afford a honeymoon. How I wish a sponsor would come on board,” he says.

@Guear1,how about employing the wisdom of king solomon of your bible and have one man marry 700 wives and a fleet of concubines?That way afew men are taking care of many women.
By the way I think iread somewhere that the number of women in kenya is pretty much equal to that of men.But whether they are equally marriageable material is another question.

"equally marriageable material" I would guess that is important too. Do women want to get their husbands from the street trenches in a drunken stupor. Doubt it.

@ Mugikuyu, you and me know very well that,a female lawyer ,or accountant would not marry a dishwasher man...but a dish washer woman would be easily marry a billionaire if she has the looks,and the youthfulness... Been that way for ages,with the exception of very few deviating from this "formula/norm".

Mhh… I squinted when I saw the heading, lakini everthing about them is in harmony... their culture (Maasai), age bracket (appropriate) and they tested the waters before a full dip! I am sitting on the fence on this one coz I find my spirit warming up to these trio, which goes against my every fibre of equality! I say good luck to them. Wanjigi will be giving them plenty of tips on how to multiply!

@Maxiley: Ndugu yangu, Nimesoma yaliyoandikwa na mkristo Jimi Wanjigi. Nimetoa maoni yangu juu ya jambo hili kwa kumpinga vikali sana. Akienda Kibera halafu akae huko kwa wiki moja na kuona jinsi maisha yalivyo magumu, bila shaka atabadilisha maoni yake mara moja.
Jameni, ikiwa baada ya kwenda shuleni kwa miaka mingi mtu anaweza kusema yaliyosemwa na mkristo Wanjigi, afadhali niseme sijaenda shuleni hata kidogo!

Your life starts and ends in poverty. You marry asking already for a sponsor to pay for expenses that you cannot cover. How long do you think this is sustainable for a happy-ever-after life? The three of you are poorly influenced.
