HEARTBROKEN WIFE REVEALS ALL! Ann Cheptumo rocked the funeral service Thursday as she poured her heart out about her late husband, Baringo Senator William Cheptumo, calling him her "friend, mentor, comforter, reconciler, adviser and even a father."
The emotional widow stunned mourners at AIC Milimani in Nairobi when she disclosed how the late Senator had paid her university fees before they married! "He was always available for our family," she declared passionately, emphasizing how his leadership extended far beyond political corridors right into their home.
Ann dropped another bombshell about their love story, confessing they first crossed paths in 1994 at a Nairobi office. "Upon introduction, he handed me a business card, which I kept without much thought, but he kept coming to my office," she revealed. Their romance blossomed rapidly, culminating in marriage just a year later in 1995!
The packed service attracted political heavyweights, including Senate Speaker Amason Kingi and Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen, who came to pay respects to the fallen lawmaker.
TRAGEDY STRUCK on February 15 when Cheptumo died at just 57 years old during hospital treatment in Nairobi. The political powerhouse will be laid to rest on March 1 at his Bartabwa home in Baringo after serving 14 years as Baringo North MP before crushing former Senator Gideon Moi in the 2022 polls with a staggering 141,777 votes against Moi's measly 71,408!
EXCLUSIVE BACKGROUND: The legal eagle earned his Bachelor of Laws degree from the University of Nairobi between 1988 and 1991, later grabbing a postgraduate diploma from the Kenya School of Law. His educational journey began at Maregut Primary School and continued through Bartolimo Secondary School and Kabarnet High School between 1975 and 1987 before his meteoric rise to political stardom!
