Cheer, glee and celebration rocked the tiny confines of Christian Foundation Fellowship church in Kajiado County.
Finally, Peter Mbugua was getting married to his second sweetheart eight years after his first wife passed on.
Speaking to NTV, the man who was formerly hitched to the late iconic politician Wambui Otieno said remarrying after losing a partner is a gesture of good Christianity.
He even urged his fellow widowers to delve into the marriage life again after losing their better halves.
"They should do it because it helps their families," he said.
Peter was all smiles as he and his new partner exchanged their vows in the company of their family and close friends.
The room was awash with happiness and the groom could not help but grin as his hope for love was reawakened.
In 2003, Peter who was still a young man made the hard yet bold decision to walk down the aisle with Wambui whose kids were around the same age with him.
The chap had ditched his young lover to be with the women's rights activist and the two lived in their Karen home till Wambui's death.
The duo first held their civil marriage in 2003 then threw an elaborate church wedding in 2011.
Their relationship was marred with controversy and scrutiny from both their families and the public.
Peter who was 29-years old remained unapologetic when he got married to a 67-year-old woman.
Shortly after their nuptials, the man's mother died but not without voicing her spite against the controversial nuptials.
Following the demise of the fiery freedom fighter in 2011, Peter who had scaled the heights fell with a thud when he was thrown out of his posh Karen residence.
He tried to fight for a piece of his late wife's property but Wambui's kids remained determined to safeguard their mother's wealth.
He moved to a one-bedroomed house situated in Kitengela and soon after, his name fizzled into thin air and memories of him followed suit.
