A story making rounds on social media has people talking about a woman in Kenya who wants to divorce her husband because he supports President William Ruto. The claim comes from lawyer Levi Munyeri, who shared details on X on December 18, 2025. He said his client called her husband “fatally stupid and unfit for mating” over his political views. She also reportedly said, “Ruto hubamba tu mafala,” a Sheng phrase meaning supporting Ruto is for fools.
Munyeri did not name the couple or give more personal details. He posted about it as an example of how politics can get into family life. The post spread fast, with screenshots shared on Facebook and other sites. Many found the words harsh and funny at the same time.
Politics divides people in Kenya these days. President Ruto faces criticism over taxes, cost of living, and other issues. Supporters defend his work on the economy and projects. But strong feelings sometimes spill into homes. Couples argue over who to vote for or back.
This case stands out for the strong language. The woman seems to tie her husband’s choice to his intelligence and even ability as a partner. “Unfit for mating” caught attention as an extreme way to put it. Some online said it’s too much to end a marriage over politics. Others noted differences in views can build up over time.
Similar stories happen elsewhere too. In past elections, families split over candidates. But filing in court over this is rare. Divorce in Kenya needs grounds like cruelty or desertion. Political disagreement alone might not hold up, but it could fit under irreconcilable differences.
Munyeri’s post sparked debate. Some called it petty. A few joked about checking spouses’ views before marriage. Others said it’s a sign of deeper problems in the relationship. Politics just brought it out.
The lawyer has spoken on public issues before. He keeps client info private, so no more facts on this couple yet. The story shows how heated things get online and in real life.
Kenyan social media loves these kinds of dramas. Posts go viral quickly. People share opinions freely. For this one, reactions mix shock, laughs, and worry about division.
As the 2027 elections get talked about, more such clashes might come up. Families try to avoid politics at gatherings. But views run deep.
This tale reminds everyone that strong opinions can affect close ties. Most couples work through differences. Here, it led to a divorce claim. Time will tell if it goes through.
No word from the husband or officials. The buzz keeps going on platforms. It highlights the personal side of national debates. Many just watch and comment from afar.
