Wanyonyi was imprisoned for 17 years, but his love for his wife did not diminish or waver, not even for a single day.

“This is a special day for me after a long journey that God enabled me to endure for 17 years. It is only by God’s grace that I have reached this day. During my time in prison, I prayed to God. I really needed him in my life, and he sustained me. Before this day, I made a plan with the catechist in charge of St. Louis Bungoma GK Prison so that I could be released in time to exchange marriage vows with my wife. She is the mother of my children, and today I want appreciate him. He has been patient since 2009. God’s hand has really worked,” he said.
