A little-known lady had over the weekend asked Mumias East MP Peter Salasya for a hand in marriage.
In an undated video trending on social media, the woman identified as Lydia Ronald was seen holding a placard with the MP’s photo written ‘MP Peter Salasya Marry Me Please Mheshimiwa’.
In what appeared like her dream was coming true, the youthful legislator booked a lunch date with the lady.
In a statement on Monday, October 17, Salasya congratulated the lady for her brave and courage.
He said the lady needs the best and that he has invited her for lunch at the National Assembly precincts on Tuesday, October 18.
“It takes courage and bravery to speak your mind in broad light. I congratulate her on the steps. May God Bless this young girl. You deserve the best . Tomorrow I invite you for a lunch in the parliament buildings. You will have the privilege to have lunch with members,” Salasya said in a Tweet.
Lydia while asking for a hand in marriage with the legislator described herself as a God-fearing, hardworking and humble woman who would make a perfect wife for the MP.
“I promise him that if chooses me to be his wife I won’t disappoint him,” Lydia was heard saying amid laughter from onlookers.
She said she decided to make the daring move after Mumias East MP said he was single and actively looking for a God-fearing partner.
In his earlier interview with the media, Salasya said he was looking for a prayerful woman who is not aged but focused and supportive to marry.
“I am just looking for a very prayerful woman, a very young girl, focused girl, supportive girl, presentable and must be able to speak to the people in the countryside. Are you willing to join me we go look for votes,” Salasya said.
