A middle-aged guy from Marakaru in Bungoma county by the name of Wamalwa recently made headlines for his amazing achievement of eating 2 kilograms of ugali and 1 kilogram of omena in just 35 minutes. The hot meal is prepared in an open field and served to competitors after 45 minutes while spectators witness this eating contest every year during the tea plantation season.
Wamalwa was declared the competition’s champion, earning himself free fertilizer and tree seeds for planting. Wamalwa said that his ability to eat well was the reason for his success and insisted that finishing such a large lunch was not a difficult chore for him, much to the surprise and astonishment of spectators. He stated that he would be eager to take part in more eating contests because he genuinely enjoys the pastime.
Wamalwa’s accomplishment astounds many because it takes a lot of effort to consume that much food. Wamalwa, on the other hand, appears to have a natural flair for eating and enjoys the chance to compete in these events.
