tribes tribes yuck.
It's easier marrying a foreigner than somebody from another ethnic group in Kenya.
Tribe will always rear its ugly head everywhere.

Saaaaasa since when did foreigner mean Mzungu?
Hata a Tanzanian is a foreigner.

So its multi-ethnic when only a Kikuyu and a luo are marrying?

Am a kikuyu, wife is an embu, my sister is married to a kamba, my mother-in-law is a mbeere. Wife's sister is married to a Meru. Is this a multi-ethnic family or we need to hunt further?
