Drama in Kisii as Man Screams “Sio Mtoto Wangu!” During Naming Ceremony
What was meant to be a joyful naming ceremony in Kisii turned into chaos this weekend when a man, seemingly calm moments earlier, suddenly screamed: “Sio mtoto wangu!” — “This is not my child!” The room fell into stunned silence as guests froze, unsure whether to intervene or leave.
The mother, dressed in a bright traditional gown, clutched the baby in shock, her face filled with disbelief and fear. Family elders quickly tried to calm the man, but his cries echoed through the hall, drawing attention from stunned relatives and neighbors.
According to those close to the family, the man had been feeling uneasy for weeks. Though he could not explain why, he suspected something was wrong in his marriage. Seeking reassurance, he quietly looked for guidance and was warned that the truth might surface unexpectedly.
During the ceremony, emotions boiled over. Overcome by suspicion and anger, he publicly declared that the child was not biologically his, turning the celebration into a scene of confusion and heartbreak.
The incident left the family divided, with some demanding explanations while others urged restraint. Elders are now calling for calm discussions and reconciliation as the community struggles to process the shocking events that unfolded during what should have been a happy occasion.
