Chief Protus Wechuli, famously known as “Misheveve”, officially retired on Saturday in a colorful and emotional ceremony held in Saboti Constituency, Trans Nzoia County. The beloved administrator, known for his signature humor and strong rapport with residents, laid down his tools of office after serving for 18 remarkable years as Chief of Saboti Location.
The retirement ceremony was graced by hundreds of residents, local leaders, and colleagues who came to celebrate a man whose charisma and comic approach to public service made him a viral sensation online.
Wechuli earned the nickname Misheveve after a clip of him hilariously narrating a domestic tragedy—involving a man who killed his mother during a dispute over vegetables—went viral. His light-hearted yet impactful delivery turned him into a household name, admired across the country.
At the ceremony, the chief did not disappoint. He once again showcased his charm and wit, delivering a farewell speech peppered with humorous anecdotes from his long tenure.
“It has been a journey of ups and downs, but I thank God. I tried many times before becoming chief, but I never gave up. Finally, I got the job I always wanted—and I have loved every moment of serving my people,” Wechuli said, his signature smile lighting up the crowd.
Residents described him as not just a chief, but a friend and father figure who used humor to connect with the community while still upholding law and order.
