The late Migori Senator Ben Oluoch Okello has been hailed by a section of Kenyans as a true "African man" by virtue of his large family.
An obituary published by the Standard named 25 children who were fathered by Senator Okelllo before adding that there were "many others".
The polygamous politician was a loving husband to four wives, two of whom are deceased.
However, it was the children who caught the attention of social media users, many of them wondering in amusement the exact number referenced by the tag "and many others".
