Joho, who officially assumed office on August 9, 2024, made the remarks during a visit to the area, where he is set to focus on local initiatives, including the fish project aimed at creating employment for the youth.
Speaking to residents, Joho playfully requested Kirinyaga County Governor Anne Waiguru to assist him in finding a young wife.
“Mimi nimeuliza Anne Waiguru, tafadhali tafutia mimi nyumba ndogo, bibi mdogo, nahamia hapa,” Joho said.
