“Huyo Fundi Hana Pawa Afutwe“Oburu Odinga’s 2nd Wife Fails to Impress at Charlene Ruto’s Wedding

Oburu Odinga’s second wife has attracted attention after her appearance at Charlene Ruto’s wedding in Mwanza, Tanzania.

The high-profile wedding was held on Friday, November 6, 2026. It brought together political leaders, government officials, family members and other prominent guests from Kenya and Tanzania.

However, one photo from the event sparked a heated fashion debate online.

The photo showed members of the Kenyan delegation arriving at the Mwanza airstrip. Oburu Odinga’s second wife was among those captured in the image.

Her outfit quickly became the centre of attention among social media users.

She wore a flowing pink and purple tie-dye kaftan-style dress. The outfit had wide short sleeves and reached down to her ankles.

She paired the dress with black flat shoes and dark sunglasses. Her hair was styled in a braided updo.

She also carried a large colourful floral handbag.

Some Kenyans felt that the outfit was too casual for such a high-profile wedding.

Critics compared her appearance with other guests who arrived in more formal outfits. Some questioned whether the dress matched the glamorous setting of Charlene’s wedding.

The phrase “Fundi afutwe” became popular among some critics. The phrase means “the tailor should be fired” and was used humorously to criticise the outfit.

However, not everyone agreed with the criticism.

A section of social media users defended Oburu’s wife. They argued that the outfit was decent and comfortable.

Others said she looked confident and well dressed. Some also questioned why women were being heavily judged over their choice of clothing.

The debate came as Kenyans continued following fashion moments from Charlene Ruto’s wedding.

Charlene married Tanzanian businessman Isaya Yunge during a colourful ceremony in Mwanza.

President William Ruto and First Lady Rachel Ruto attended the wedding. Several senior Kenyan leaders and politicians were also present.

The wedding had earlier been preceded by a traditional Kalenjin Koito ceremony held in August at the Ruto family’s Intonna Heritage Farm in Kilgoris, Narok County.

The event attracted widespread attention online.

Guests shared different moments from the ceremony. Their outfits also became a major talking point.

For Oburu’s second wife, her appearance turned into one of the unexpected fashion stories from the wedding.

Despite the criticism, the reactions remained divided. Some praised her simple look while others maintained that the outfit was not suitable for such a major occasion.
