Kevin Bahati's family recently graced social media with a family photoshoot.

The family image, captured to commemorate Majesty Bahati's birthday, took an unforeseen twist when a modified version of the photo surfaced online.

What started as a simple family portrait transformed into a trending topic after an unknown individual manipulated the image, inserting other celebrities alongside the Bahati family members.

The manipulated photo, which initially featured Bahati, Diana, and their three children; Morgan, Heaven and Majesty, saw a surprising transformation.

The photo editor inserted Victor Wanyama, a Kenyan professional footballer currently playing for the Major League Soccer Club CF Montreal, next to Morgan Bahati, singer KRG The Don next to Heaven Bahati, and filmmaker Abel Mutua next to Majesty Bahati.

The bizarre creation caught the attention of Twitter users and quickly gained traction.

Victor Wanyama, upon seeing the photoshopped image, reacted strongly. Displaying his displeasure, he reposted a tweet by a Twitter user identified as Wesley Kibande, and condemned the act.

The football player voiced his frustration, asserting that such thoughtless actions need to cease immediately.

'Tahidi High' actor Joseph Kinuthia, popularly known as Omosh Kizangila, has shed light on why he hasn't yet moved into the new house that was constructed for him by a generous well-wisher in 2021.

This move followed Omosh's plea for financial assistance from Kenyans. The house, a three-bedroom master ensuite with an American open kitchen, was built by Sung Timber's CEO and founder, Kathy Andrew, and her friends.

However, Omosh revealed during an interview with Nicholas Kioko on August 21, that the house still remains unoccupied due to certain practicalities, particularly related to his children's education.

He explained that while he intends to move in eventually, the current proximity of the nearest school makes it challenging, as it could mean a long commute for his children.

"The house is still there. Kuna logistics mi huangalianga kama Watoto kuchange shule. Hao iko lakini sasa the nearest chuo ni ka distance. Ntakua naumiza huyo mtoi kama ni kuenda asubuhi na kurudi jioni. Wakishagrow tutaenda tu. Hao ni yetu. Huko ni home," Omosh said.

The mother-daughter bond between Kathy Kiuna and Vanessa Kiuna Kovac goes beyond the ordinary, as they openly share their marital experiences to uplift not only each other but also their listeners.

Their recent heart-to-heart on the 'Mummy and Vee' podcast offered a glimpse into Vanessa's marriage, unveiling the challenges they've confronted and successfully overcome.

In an episode posted on August 18, the duo welcomed guests Robert Kovac and Jeremy Kiuna, Vanessa's husband and brother, respectively, to the podcast.

The conversation was refreshingly candid as Vanessa and Robert, who have been together for nearly 11 years, delved into the journey of their marriage, including the hurdles they encountered along the way.

Vanessa shared that their journey was punctuated by phases of stability, followed by rough patches, and then periods of reconciliation before the cycle repeated.

"It's taken us a while, we've been together for what? Ten years, 11 this year. We were ok in the very beginning, then we had a rough patch, and then we got ok again and then we got engaged. Then we had this minor rough, then we got married," Vanessa recounted.

Robert added that their conflicts often circled around recurring issues, noting that their fights were grounded in perspectives about how things should work.

"We were fighting about the same thing," Robert admitted, sharing that they even discovered a 3-month argument pattern.

Arap Marindich, a figure who gained notoriety in 2022 for mimicking World Rally Championship drivers, was arrested in Nairobi's Central Business District (CBD) for attacking the Tom Mboya statue.

In a now-viral video, Marindich was initially caught on camera standing atop metal grills, wielding a whip as he struck the Tom Mboya statue.

It didn't take long for an undercover police officer, dressed in civilian clothing, to swiftly apprehend him, subsequently dragging him away.

Onlookers near the Archives building in the CBD recorded the entire incident while attempting to mediate, urging the officer to release Marindich.

"It's not like I was going to run away because we were in communication, we are actually friends. But one day unaamka unapata 'nataka yote leo'," she said.
