Wanyama, wife lose baby

"Like this time my wife had undergone a Caesarean Section procedure but sadly, we lost our baby. We buried our baby two weeks ago. Helping out at home is showing leadership through action; I'm not a male chauvinist," he declared.

Society normally frowns on a man doing house chores, but Wanyama said that this does not affect him.

"I ignore them; we are not living in a chauvinistic society. In the big hotels, men are the best cooks and chefs," he said.
"That's a stereotype; we must change those stereotypes. We must provide strategic leadership in the society. Apart from washing, I also cook and shop; I know how to shop for the best vegetables in the market ," he said.
