Kakamega senator Boni Khalwale has left Kenyans on X, formerly known as Twitter, talking after revealing the unique name of his grandson.
In a post on his X page, the Kakamega senator shared that he was enjoying spending time with his grandson, whom they had named Austin Shindishindu Khalwale, and keeping warm during the cold weather.
"It's a very cold evening in Nairobi. My grandson, Austin Shindishindu Khalwale, has been here for the weekend. What a joy warming up together!" he posted.

Kenyans were, however, confused and fascinated by the choice of name and questioned how the grandson could even pronounce his own name.
"Shindi what? one user asked
"Wakikutana na kijana yangu apo shimanyula primary mambo itakua best mheshimiwa💯." another one added
