Murkomen looked unrecognisable as she wore a baggy Arican-inspired outfit for the ceremony.
He complemented the white and maroon shirt with black trousers.
Next to him was his lovely bride wearing a gorgeous white gown with maroon accents.
The two were in high spirits during the church wedding, as Wanjiru held a bouquet. Kipchumba disclosed that they had been married for over 14 years.
“Happy anniversary to us. I love you, Gladys Wanjiru Kipchumba, and thank you for everything. Cheers to many more years ahead,” he captioned the image.
Kenyans celebrated the couple, while others made fun of Murkomen’s dress code. Here are some of the comments:
Babaafandi:
“My wife and I are celebrating 12 years. Happy anniversary.”
Kimaniemmanuel:
“But that trouser…”
Tiffshamil:
“Today, I believe in trusting the process.”
Felixkeverenge:
“Happy anniversary to both of you.”
robertomondi12:
“At least your wife wasn't Nelly, who dumped the groom days before the wedding.”
Diffreh:
“Life is truly a journey.”
How did Murkomen's wife support him?
Earlier this year, Murkomen celebrated his wife for her steadfast love. On Valentine's Day, the politician shared a lovely photo on a floral couch with his wife.
The duo smiled at the camera as she clasped her hands around his arm. Wanjiru wore blue jeans and a maroon top, completing the look with earrings and a necklace with a pendant.
"Love wins," the CS captioned the snap.
The politician previously posted a photo showing them sitting on a bed, presumably while still on campus. He showered her with love, writing:
"This is how it started 20 years ago. Happy anniversary to us. Gladys Wanjiru Kipchumba Cheers to love and long life. I love you."
