This topic reminds me of a lady who died of AIDS several years ago in my village. Her old mother was told she died of undiagonised illness while the whole village new the truth. Nobody has ever told her the truth. The old woman is very much at piece. I wonder whether this would have been the case if she had been told the truth.... Remember also the story of Mbugua's mother,the guy who married Wambui Otieno.

LOL... so wait,the parents lived in a nice house (for that area) that was built by the jamaa's first husband? Did the parents meet the mzungu?
*** And so what? They do NOT stop loving their son because he is THEIR son. Leave the parents alone. I am sure they love their son especially the Mother.

Personally i do not know what the hulabaloo is all about KTN and this dude's parents.
They are just doing their job! bringing news to your living room,that's why you tune to it.

These was a real story told as it is.
That they went and found the real parents of the dude that was excellent jounalism- indepth analysis of news.
KUDOS KTN.

Better put your money where your mouth is...

KTN is one of the best media houses in Africa.The stories they feature are in most cases daring and relevant to the common mwananchi.

Who wont want to know the parents of gay couples feelings on the issue? I think such expose' help people understand certain issues much better.

KTN reporters have won numerous awards for their reportage.Thats the reason their news anyway otherwise you wont be here complaining.

brothers and sisters lets get impartial with this issue for once..

in as far as i am concerned KTN just conveyed news in their raw form & that is part of journalism! there are people who cheered and other agonized and FYI that is expected in any news...

if you got angry then take it as a lesson not to become a plug for your parents will one day receive the shocking news..

@Selah...how was the intergalactic flight from Tatooine?

I think it was inhuman to expose the parents on National TV as they received the News. It's the son who's gay,for crying out loud and not the parents! I think it's very idiotic of the media to drag the whole family into the issue. Being a parent is hard enough...and being dragged into your kids issues while you're trying to enjoy your sunset years is traumatic!

Why were they soo quick to follow up this story,make it headlines for a week and even traumatize the old folks? Why dont they do the same to our very own murderers,child molesters,rapists,sodomizers,serial killers..etc who live right under our noses and we so well know them? Why are they selective on who to name and shame? If they're as brave as they pretend to be,I dare them to bring Ngengi's(the groom) family on TV too..akina Chomdeley,Maina Njengas family..alafu tutajua ni mashujaa,now that they're very keen to name and shame. What happened to being 'human'?

Advice is what we ask for when we already know the answer but wish we didn't..

@Selah - I wish Obi Wan Kenobi was near - anyway (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tatooine)...all I'm asking is,which planet did you come from to so boldly speak so in favour of KTN/STandard?
