Kenya's most prominent polygamist has died having married more than 100 women in his lifetime and fathering nearly 200 children

Ancentus Akuku was legendary in Kenya. He married his first wife in 1939 and became polygamist some 70 years ago at the age of 22. He's outlived 12 of his wives, marrying the last one in 1992. There were so many children in his family that Akuku established two elementary schools solely to educate his children, as well as a church for his growing family to attend.
