Former Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko and his wife Primrose Mwelu Nyamu Mbuvi are celebrating a special family moment as they marked the birthday of their daughter Salma Mbuvi. The proud parents took time to share heartfelt messages as they celebrated their daughter turning a year older.
Primrose Mbuvi expressed her love and joy through a touching post on her Instagram stories, where she shared a photo alongside a warm birthday message dedicated to Salma. In the post, she lovingly referred to her daughter as her “Ethiopian babe” and expressed deep affection, wishing her happiness and blessings as she celebrates another year of life. The message quickly caught the attention of followers who joined the family in sending birthday wishes.
The celebration highlights the close bond within the Mbuvi family, which has often shared glimpses of their personal life on social media. Over the years, the family has frequently celebrated milestones together, including birthdays, anniversaries, and other important occasions.
Mike Sonko, who served as the second governor of Nairobi between 2017 and 2020, remains one of Kenya’s most recognizable and controversial political figures. His tenure ended after he was impeached over corruption and abuse of office allegations. Despite this setback, Sonko has continued to maintain a strong public presence and has hinted at a potential political comeback ahead of the 2027 general elections through the National Economic Development Party (NEDP).
The couple has been married for more than two decades, having tied the knot around 1999. Together they have built a large family that includes their daughters Saumu Agnes Mbuvi, Sandra Mbuvi, and Salma, who continues to receive warm birthday wishes from friends, family, and supporters.
