Mosiria backs Ruto in urging Gen Z aged 25 and above to marry

The Citizen Engagement and Customer Care Department head in Nairobi County, Geoffrey Mosiria, has backed President William Ruto’s latest call to the Gen Zs.
Through a post on X on Sunday, December 8, 2025, Mosiria has said it is high time Gen Zs get married.
He went on to state that the country was witnessing a generation delaying family life while also admitting that many young people were quietly longing for stability.

Mosiria explained that marriage was not just a social decision but also a turning point that brings structure to personal growth.
He noted that the current reluctance among some Gen Zs had more to do with fear than capacity.

Marriage as a booster
In his detailed post, Mosiria injected humour and conviction in equal measure.
“The President advised young people to marry at 25. What he forgot to add is this: when you marry early, your star starts shining immediately because a woman comes with a starter pack of blessings,” Mosiria wrote on X.

He added that young men should not complain about single life and lack of progress at the same time.
“Marriage attracts favour, God adds wealth to feed the extra mouth he has brought into your life. Marriage is not a burden; it is a destiny booster,” Mosiria posted on X.

His remarks landed at a time when conversations about relationships and responsibility have been rising online.
Mosiria said he hoped the message would help young people make decisions rooted in purpose rather than pressure.
Ruto’s earlier message
Mosiria’s call comes just weeks after President Ruto urged young men above the age of 25 to marry.

The President made the remarks during the wedding ceremony of Moses Budamba Mudavadi and Qillian Ndeso Saiya at Ulinzi Sports Complex.
He told the gathering that family remained the firm foundation on which a strong nation is built.
He humorously challenged young men to stop moving from one club to another and instead settle down and build homes.
“The foundation of a nation is the firm foundation of a family.
“A nation is as strong as the families we put together, and therefore, as parents, we must do whatever it takes, encourage our children, as I do here, all the men in this room, those of you who are above the age of 25, get married,” Ruto said
Mosiria concluded his appeal by saying that single men and women who were serious about companionship should step forward.
He joked that as a public servant, he was ready to help connect willing partners, adding that loneliness was never meant to be a permanent state.
