He captured his first international titles in 2022, winning the 100 meter race at the Commonwealth Games and the African Championships in Athletics. With a time of 10.02s, he defeated the defending champion from South African Akani Simbine to win the Commonwealth Games 2022. Furthermore, Omanyala owns the African record and ranks ninth in the list of the event’s all time quickest man in 100 meters.
Laventa Amutavi, also known as Amluv Lavesh, is also a sprinter and social worker.
Yes, Ferdinand Omanyala and Laventa Amutavi have a son, named Quinton Finn Omanyala. It also seems like they have a daughter, according to their social media platfrom. However, nothing is confirmed as of now.
She, like Omanyala, is a sprinter, a shared passion that holds their relationship together. In 2016, they wrote the opening chapter of their love story. Omanyala attended the University of Nairobi, and Laventa attended Moi. They were in Nakuru for the Kecoso games. She was competing for the Kenya Maritime Authority, while he was running for the Communication Authority. They met during lunch at a nearby restaurant. Although she knew him, they had never spoken. After a brief greeting, he approached her and requested for her phone number, but she shot the request back at him. She requested his phone number and saved it, but she didn’t text or call him.
They reconnected in the East African Games in December of that same year. Omanyala did not allow his future queen slip away like he did the first time they met. When he inquired why she hadn’t reached out, she felt terrible. She sent him a text soon afterwards, and they continued to text for hours. They remained good friends until early 2017, when Omanyala took his shot and asked Laventa to be his girlfriend. She said yes. The couple have been together for more than five years now.
Laventa worked as a social worker. In 2016, when she applied for an attachment at Mama Lucy Hospital, everything fell into place for her. She worked such long hours that caught the attention of her coworkers. She was recalled to the hospital while Moi University was on a long break. Amutavi was granted a brief contract with a good salary. She was living with Omanyala at that point. Soon later, she discovered she was expecting her first son. She was very frightened and worried. Even during her last trimester, she continued to work and gave birth in the hospital where she was an intern. They informed their parents of the birth. When their baby was six months old, she went back to work, and the two had to split parenting chores
