NTV news anchor Dennis Okari is husband again.
Mr Okari on Friday morning exchanged wedding vows with his fiancée, Naomi Joy, at Ridgeways Baptist Church.
Why was the wedding done secretly?
Given his earlier marriage with K24 news anchor Betty Kyallo that collapsed after a short while, Mr Okari, may be, did not want any more publicity about the wedding with a new love.
Mr Okari’s invite-only wedding was arranged so secretly that even some of the guests were not aware of the wedding venue as late as Friday morning.
“I was called by organisers of the function yesterday evening Thursday, February 14, and they asked me to call them once I get to Kiambu Road — so that they me directions thereafter,” an informant, who spoke in confidence, said.
Well-placed sources, however, told us that the lovers were scheduled to exchange wedding vows at Ridgeways Baptist Church, and a wedding reception would follow, thereafter, at Royal Gardenia Grounds on Kiambu Road.
“Mr Okari warned us – in advance – against taking videos or pictures at the function,” said the source.
Mr Okari’s wedding comes just a day after his ex-wife, Betty, wished him well in his newly-found love life.
“I am happy for him (Okari). I wish him the best,” Ms Kyallo said on Instagram, adding: “And, to everyone else who has gone or is going through the same thing (separation/divorce), you are human, life happens; move on and find your happiness. I am happier [outside marriage).”
Mr Okari and Ms Kyallo’s marriage collapsed six months after they tied the knot in October, 2015.
The former couple has a 4-year-old daughter together.
Very little information is known about Mr Okari’s bride, Naomi Joy, whom he proposed to on January 26 this year.
Mr Okari – traditionally – sought his lover Joy’s hand in marriage in October last year at her parents’ home in Ukambani.
