Tuesday, May 27, 2025 - Billionaire businessman and politician Jimi Wanjigi is known for his power plays in Kenya’s political and business circles.
However, in a rare, heartfelt interview on the 3 Truths,
No Lies podcast, he opened up about love, marriage, and the woman who
captured his heart.
The Safina Party leader offered three unfiltered pieces of
advice for those thinking of settling down.
"First," Wanjigi said, "marry a pretty girl,
you want attractive children. It opens doors for them."
"Second, marry a clever girl, you don’t want to raise
dumb children. It makes life harder for them."
"Third, avoid marrying into families with generational
madness or terminal illness, it carries over to your kids."
According to Wanjigi, the essence of marriage lies in the
kind of children you raise, a view he links to both genetics and wisdom in
choosing a life partner.
He also shared the story of how he met his wife, Irene Nzisa,
at a friend’s birthday party.
"I just knew she was my wife. I was introduced to her
by her sister, and I told my friend in fact I was with the birthday boy
together.”
“I said I have found my wife today. It was instant.”
“And we went out, two or three days later. I even told her
that you are my wife, and she was shaking; she was much younger than I was. She
was 22 at the time," he said.
They went out within days, got engaged three months later,
and married within a year.
“Three months I engaged her, and I married her within a
year.”
“God was great, I was not wrong. If your gut is right, then
work on your fears.”
“She is the love of my life and my true love, she is all in
one," Wanjigi declared.
