Ritva “Kike” Elomaa (ps), who is 70 years old in July, is busy. He has left his dear dogs, long-haired Akita Marsk and 50kg golden retriever, home and came to Helsinki before leaving for the airport.

– It’s a tough pair, Kike praises her dogs.

Immediately it is revealed that Kike is a tough night flower. You have to go to bed at one two nights, even if there is a wake -up in the morning. During the summer break in Parliament, he enjoyed a longer night’s sleep. Even the dogs did not wake up when the mistress of a 600-square-meter mascara decided to sleep longer.

The phone beeps in the small parliament. It always stays on and email Kike follows diligently. Prior to his current Member of Parliament, Kike has had time to be an X -ray, award -winning bodybuilder and singing artist.

Bodybuilding ran out of wall

Kike has been in public for a long time. Already in 1981, he roped success as a bodybuilder by winning Ms. Olympia title. A sports career carried so far that he was named after the Hall of Fame of the Bodybuilding in 2001. Despite his success, Kike gave up the sport.

– I stopped like a wall in 1985.

The road to the singing artist started in childhood when Kike performed diligently with his cousin. Kike’s father Arvo Sainio also served as a Member of Parliament, and at the summer party, the duo was able to sing to the legendary Veikko Vennamo. The cousins ​​succeeded in the final in the population to the surface. The brothers Matti and Teppo Ruohonen also became known for the same race.

Singer-songwriter Junnu Vainio spotted a singing bodybuilder Let’s hope, hopefully from the charity program. It sparked joint gigs and started Kike’s recording career. Now there are already seven long plays.

– I went all over Finland as a soloist for 26 years.

For seven years, Kike made seven months a year on shipping gig in Silja Pablo blacksmith with.

Towards the end of the song career, Kike did solo gigs. He himself carried the sound in the car, raised the stuff when and by the time, and performed several sets with the backing tapes.

He also rarely performed with the band, but he hasn’t had his own title band. Even the big hits didn’t really hit.

– Yes, I made my bread.

Close to the heart

The ranks of the people became familiar to Kike during the vocal career, and at least it doesn’t hurt to be a Member of Parliament. Kike believes that all his stages are united by community.

– I have never planned that I will do this in a year now. Those things have come and I have gone towards them.

Perhaps the key is good self -esteem – which is the cancellation of childhood.

– Somehow it must be.

– Childhood has probably been some kind of self -esteem stone and granite. We have had limits and love. There has been no abundance, even though there has been a big farmhouse. We couldn’t get any hiking. But there hasn’t been any lack.

Kike remembers childhood with special warmth, it was rich.

Family and family have always been dear. Big sister moved to the capital from an early age, but Kike admired her tenth -match brother in sports. Nowadays, the nephew is holding Karjurock in the yard of a former home, where Kikek was once again enjoying.

Culture Kike is highly valued and has fought for it.

– When it comes to culture, our party is, of course, in the stick, but I have tried to defend it as much as ever.

– Its meaning is much greater than many people understand.

It quickly becomes clear that animals, veterans and those in the collection are very close to Kike’s heart. It annoys me when you want to change but there is always a long process ahead. Kike is such that you want to do things quickly. At home, the dishes are not resting at the sink or the important papers will lie down.

“It’s pretty shocking if it’s a weekend and I can’t get it done,” he says of the agency.

On the other hand, Kike has a very long surface with people.

– Then sometimes when I get angry, then I remember it.

Husband was a credit person

Kike has also spoken in public about not having their own children. Its time passed. There was always something else in life, husband Elastic There was a lot in Sweden, something happened all the time in my career. There’s no reason.

– We never had such a normal life.

– I should have thought a little more things ahead.

The marriage, which lasted as much as 42 years, ended when Kimmo died suddenly. For his late husband, Kike gives all the honor of his bodybuilding career. Kimmo believed in him and cheered.

– He was my credit man.

Kimmo was a crochet. On March 20, 2021, Kike woke up to Kimmo’s cry.

– I helped him on the couch and suddenly called 112.

Kike moved Kimmo back to the floor and began to revive. The revitalization was heavy, the sweat flowed. The emergency number was cheered. First aid came in, even electric shocks didn’t help.

– Then came the doctor and then pulled it to the dining table.

– I brought a black sack and put it in it. It was there then.

When Kimmo’s coffin was later brought into the yard, Marski began to roar against his habits. At that time, the Sylvi-Tuulikki dog, which was still alive, pressed his pawprint in the coffin, which was still reflected in the blessing of the next day. When the trio returned home, peace descended.

Kike’s support and help Kike was at the time of Kimmo’s death – and still is. Still, the death of the spouse forced me to think again.

At home with “boys”

Kike has not gave up on a large house after being left alone. And there is no lonely with dogs.

Where at work, co -workers bring joy and when you get something to move forward, “boys” bring joy at home. In the free time, a dream day starts with a joint run. It’s a good thing if you do both dogs poop.

– Then we come to the gym. I’m a little workout.

After the workout, Kike will cook good food for the trio, most likely fish.
