Veteran trade unionist and Central Organisation of Trade Unions (COTU) Secretary-General Francis Atwoli, 75, has once again caught the attention of Kenyans online after sharing a romantic video with his wife, Mary Kilobi.
The short clip has quickly gone viral, with many people sharing mixed reactions across social media platforms.
In the video, Atwoli is seen holding his young wife closely as the two dance to soft music at their luxurious home in Kajiado County.
Mary Kilobi lovingly serenades her husband as they sway together, clearly enjoying a private and happy moment.
The setting, the music, and their affection added to the charm of the video, making it a trending topic online.
Francis Atwoli and Mary Kilobi’s marriage has often been a subject of public discussion, mainly because of their large age difference.
Despite this, the couple has never shied away from showing their love publicly.
They regularly share photos and videos from their home, holidays, and special occasions, proving that they are comfortable with their relationship.
As expected, the video attracted different reactions from netizens.
Some praised the couple, saying love has no age limit and applauding Atwoli for openly celebrating his marriage.
Supporters described the moment as sweet, peaceful, and inspiring, noting that happiness matters more than public opinion.
However, others were more critical. A section of social media users questioned the age gap and felt the video was unnecessary to share online.
Some joked about the moment, while others said public figures should keep such private moments away from the public eye.
This is not the first time Atwoli and Kilobi have sparked debate online.
In the past, their wedding photos, vacation clips, and home videos have often trended, drawing both admiration and criticism in equal measure.
