We are excited to promote the “Tom Mboya 70th and the First Black Family Reunion in Africa,” set to take place in Kisumu, Kenya, in 2026. Our website, “First Black Family Reunion in Africa.com,” features a section titled “Find Love in Africa,” reflecting the unique cultural experiences and opportunities for connection that Kenya offers. Kenya, with its population of 56,715,200, provides a vibrant backdrop for this historic event.
In 1990, at the age of 37, I visited Kenya to premiere my 1988 film “The Contemporary Gladiator.” As a world kickboxing champion and filmmaker, I was single and eager to explore new cultures. The experience was unlike anything I had encountered in America. During our visit in August 2024, my 25-year-old son, Anthony “Amp” Elmore, experienced the direct and warm approach of Kenyan women. I shared these experiences with an American woman, who later traveled to Kenya and found a husband.

For those attending the First Black Family Reunion in Africa, I suggest considering the search for love as part of your journey. The reunion emphasizes education, enlightenment, and entertainment, with social contact being a key aspect of the entertainment. Personally, I married a Kenyan woman in 1995, and although we are no longer together, we have a wonderful 26-year-old son, Anthony “Amp” Elmore Jr. My experiences with African women continued, leading me to marry an Ethiopian woman in 2006, who is a remarkable wife.
We encourage attendees of the 2026 reunion to plan their agendas to include social activities and environments conducive to meeting potential partners. Kenya offers numerous natural settings for such encounters. Even among the American attendees, there may be opportunities to connect with like-minded individuals. Kenya is home to beautiful people, and the nightlife offers a chance to experience this firsthand. On a personal note, I experienced the clubs in Kenya where the youth where music was at a very uncomfortable volume like I am told by my son that such loud music is common in clubs that youth attend in America. Depending on your age, Kenya has diverse entertainment options and environments to find love.

I am a testament to finding love in Africa. There is a cultural aspect in Africa where older men marry younger women, a practice not as common in America unless one is extremely wealthy. For example, I was 53 when I married my 27-year-old Ethiopian wife. I shared this with a friend, who also found love with an Ethiopian wife. Although my wife wanted a child and I was initially hesitant, we had a son in 2016 when I was 63. Now, at 71, I cherish my 8-year-old son, who many mistake for my grandchild. My story is a testament to the possibilities of finding love in Africa, and I encourage others to explore these opportunities during the First Black Family Reunion in Africa.
