A couple based in Kakamega are the winners Villa Rosa Kempinski’s Sh2.5 million valentine’s treat. Mr Ramadhan Mohamed and Ms Esha Gelleh, who both work in Kakamega town, emerged the best in the Valentine Day competition dubbed, The Greatest Love Story.
Ramadhan, 27, popularly known as Ramzi and his girlfriend, Esha, 25, trounced four other finalists after their fairytale love narrative garnered 700 likes on Villa Rosa Kempinski’s Facebook page. Ramzi works as a clerical assistant at the Kakamega County Assembly while his girlfriend is a nurse at Kakamega General Hospital.
“I am elated beyond words,” was Ramzi’s reaction when informed he had beaten his closest rivals, Willie & Wangechi Kanyeki who had garnered 648 likes. “This is such sweet news yet I am not a heavy social media user unlike my girlfriend. She is the one who saw the media articles calling for love stories and convinced me that we try our luck,” he added.

The young lovers sat down together and composed what has finally emerged as the winning story. The two-week long competition was open to members of the public above 25 years regardless of their financial or social status. It attracted 600 applicants with five shortlisted by a panel of judges drawn from some of Kenya’s most illustrious personalities and romanticists.
The 5 finalists were: Nicholas Katua and Iqbal Bassi, Ramadhan Mohamed and Esha Gelleh, Willie & Wangechi Kanyeki, Zawadi & John and Ndereba Mwangi & Imedla.
Ramzi’s story was voted as mesmerizing and enchanting enough: He beautifully narrated to the world how he met Esha back in 2015 as a jobless undergraduate grazing his father’s livestock in Mumias.
Incidentally, he got injured while running away from Esha’s father who bumped onto them as he prepared to introduce himself to her. Ramzi later encountered Esha at a local hospital where she worked, when he had gone to seek medical attention after sustaining injuries while running from her father!
