Wedding Bells Silenced! Senator Hezena’s Engagement Implodes Amid Shocking Revelations
She categorically denies being married and has requested “total privacy moving forward on this matter,” threatening legal action against further “slander.”
Controversial blogger Maverick Aoko has thrown a grenade into Senator Hezena Lemaletian’s carefully crafted narrative about her recently canceled engagement.
What was initially portrayed as a dignified cultural decision by Samburu elders has now been exposed as a messy web of alleged deception, spurned lovers, and political intrigue.
Just months ago, social media buzzed with excitement as the youthful nominated Senator announced her traditional engagement to Dr. Hussein M.L., describing him poetically as “the gentleman who is after my heart and is apparently sitting inside it eating popcorn while swinging on a grandpa rocking chair.”
The Senator had proudly shared that elders from both clans, the “Clan of cows that lick fire (Quaro)” and the “Son of Lake Drinkers (Sarima)” had blessed the union, hashtagging it #QuaroWedsSarima.
Bombshell allegations
But according to Aoko’s explosive exposé, the romantic fairy tale was nothing but smoke and mirrors.
The blogger alleges that the Senator, who presents herself as 28, is actually closer to 38, a full decade older than her 25-year-old fiancé, Mussa Lenyumpa.
She claims citing close sources that it was the young doctor who called off the engagement and not the elders as per the senator and this was after allegedly discovering concerning health issues.
She accused the senator of lying about the bride price asserting that it wasn’t Sh100,000 as she had claimed, but nearly Sh500,000.

Receipt of the alleged bride price sent to the senator Hezena’s family showing a figure of approximately Sh500,000.
To lather up the story, she attached a video showing the Senator “forcing a ring” on the reluctant groom’s finger alluding to it not being such a tight relationship.
In perhaps the most damaging allegations, Aoko claims the Senator has a history of high-profile relationships, including one with Saitabao Ole Kanchory, Raila Odinga’s former Chief Agent during the 2022 elections.
According to the blogger, this relationship allegedly led to financial ruin for Kanchory, forcing him to close his Ngong Road law firm and relocate to Malindi.
The post further alleges a heated confrontation between Senator Lemaletian and another female politician, Senator Orwoba, at a hotel in Juba, purportedly over “a man in Gafment.”
Senator’s defense
Senator Lemaletian has issued a terse statement maintaining that Samburu elders conducted a “THOROUGH background check” before halting the marriage process and returning the 100,000 KSh dowry payment.
She categorically denies being married and has requested “total privacy moving forward on this matter,” threatening legal action against further “slander.”
This scandal couldn’t come at a worse time for the young Senator, who was appointed to represent youth interests. Questions about her actual age could undermine her position, while the allegations about her romantic history threaten to overshadow her legislative work.
