Kakamega Twins: Melon Lutenyo Excited As She Graduates from Mount Kenya University The young woman shared a TikTok video of her celebrating as she graduated from Mount Kenya University with pomp and colour. After overcoming many challenges on her path to higher education, Melon's graduation marks a remarkable achievement. The mother of one graduated with a degree in Journalism and Mass Communication, a valuable milestone towards building her YouTube career. Melon revealed that she finished Form Four on April 21, 2021, and joined the university on September 27 the same year. "It has not been easy for me but I thank God for everything," the excited graduate captioned the video. The YouTuber, who is married to a man named Willis Odhiambo, became a mother in September 2022. Melon married the love of her life in a traditional ceremony and wept uncontrollably on her wedding day. "I'm happy. I was only crying because of parting ways with my sister, but marriage was my choice and no one forced me to," she said. Melon revealed she gave birth when she was about to sit for her exams but went ahead to do it as her mother took care of the child. While sharing photos of her and the family, she professed her undying love for her husband as she asked God to bless his hustle. How the Kakamega Twins met Melon and her identical twin, Sharon Mathias, captured the world's attention in 2019 when they discovered each other's existence in a chance meeting. It all began at an event when students and teachers of their high schools noticed the striking resemblance between the two sisters raised by different families. DNA tests later confirmed their biological connection, revealing that they were, indeed, identical twins who had been separated at birth. Despite the initial shock of discovering each other after 19 years, Melon and Sharon embraced the opportunity to bond as sisters, becoming symbols of the unbreakable ties that family can forge.
