The Standard, the oldest newspaper in Kenya, spared a whole page to report the story of Rose Adikin, a Ugandan girl who married a Chinese man and becomes internet celebrity in China, on July 2.
The author, Linda Bach, together with members from the Kenya Editors Guild, visited the couple on June 18 in Suichang county of East China's Zhejiang province, and had thorough talks. Reporters from Zhejiang International Communication Center were also on site, providing photos to the Kenyan newspaper. During their visit, the media group vowed to tell Rose's stories in Kenya.
"Rose took us to a modern house she is building which is nearing completion. From the smiles, it was evident that this was a great feat for the family," Bach wrote in the story.
The Standard is a major English-language newspaper in Kenya and was established in 1902. The Standard Group, to which the newspaper belonged to, is one of the most influential media groups in Kenya.
