On January 4, 2025, the picturesque town of Tigoni in Kiambu County, Kenya, became the backdrop for a momentous occasion—the wedding of Peter Miano, son of Tourism and Wildlife Cabinet Secretary Rebecca Miano, and his bride, Wambui Kibe.
The event was a harmonious blend of tradition, culture, and political significance, drawing dignitaries and well-wishers from various sectors.
The wedding unfolded in a private setting, with the couple exchanging vows in a traditional Kikuyu ceremony.
Guests were treated to a rich tapestry of cultural performances, including traditional dances and music, reflecting Kenya’s diverse heritage.
The attire was equally vibrant, with attendees donning colorful garments that showcased the nation’s cultural richness.
The ceremony was graced by several prominent figures, underscoring the event’s significance.
Deputy President Kithure Kindiki attended as the chief guest, marking his first public appearance in 2025.
In his address, Kindiki emphasized the importance of strong family units in building a prosperous nation, stating, “As we aspire to build strong families and a better nation, we must pursue both the hardware and the software that underpin strong societies.”
Other notable attendees included Defense Cabinet Secretary Soipan Tuya, Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen, Water Cabinet Secretary Eric Mugaa, Attorney General Dorcas Odwour, and Mbeere North Member of Parliament Geoffrey Ruku.
Their presence highlighted the event’s political significance and the close ties between the Miano family and Kenya’s leadership.
Miano, the mother of the groom, has been a prominent figure in Kenya’s political landscape.
Before her appointment as the Cabinet Secretary for Tourism and Wildlife, she served as the Managing Director and CEO of KenGen, Kenya’s leading electricity generating company.
Her leadership in the energy sector earned her national recognition, and her transition into the tourism portfolio reflects her versatility and commitment to national development.
Her son, Peter, has been a figure of interest due to his association with the Miano family.
While details about his personal life have been kept relatively private, his wedding to Wambui Kibe has brought him into the public eye, highlighting the family’s continued prominence in Kenyan society.
