Dalmas Otieno died on September 7, and politicians and government officials sent condolences messages in his honour
During his memorial mass, his first wife, Patricia, cracked mourners with her confession about how his looks brought them issues
She also explained the reasons that led her to let Dalmas and his third wife live with her under the same roof
The veteran politician died on September 7, leaving politicians across the country sending their condolences.
At the memorial, Patricia recalled how Dalmas used to cause her trouble with women who could not resist his good looks.
“My husband was many things, a devoted father. I married Dalmas in 1965; we were both students at Rapogi. I was on the girls’ side and he was on the boys’ side. He was the head prefect for the boys, and I was the head prefect for the girls. That time I was very beautiful and you know, with Luos, a woman with a gap between her teeth is considered the most beautiful woman,” she said.
Patricia also, in her eulogy, revealed that when her husband remarried his third wife, she gave them a room inside her big house.
“He knew I would be his wife. He instructed two ladies from his place to watch me and be very careful so I do not talk to any man. Whatever I was doing, they were to report to him. We loved each other.
I married Dalmas, a very handsome man, who gave me problems with women. He was handsome that no woman could pass without turning her head to look at him. But I played it cool because I am a born-again Christian,” she added.
She also explained why she chose to live with her man and her co-wife under one roof and maintained that they still live together.
“I have been living with Dorothy ever since she got married to my husband, for 14 years under one roof. I gave them a room. Until she had her twins, then she did not move out, she is still living with me. So many people challenged me welcoming a woman into our house. I did not want him to park his car in Rongo where Dorothy had rented her house, so I told my husband to bring that woman home, I had a big house,” she added.
