    Meru senator Mithika Linturi was dragged to the corridors of justice after Maryanne Keitany claimed the politician had intended to disinherit her.

  1. Johnson Nduya Muthama
    The former Machakos senator divorced his wife Agnes Kavindu in 1993 when it became apparent their affair was no longer tenable.

Sometime in 2021, Muthama accused Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka of breaking his marriage.

  1. Alfred Mutua

The drama between two ex-lovers Lilian Nganga and Governor Alfred Mutua took another twist when the woman accused the politician of threatening her.

In her statement, she also claimed Mutua demanded she returns money she may have received from him in the course of their staying together.

  1. William Ruto
    The deputy president was sued by one Priscah Chemutai Bett for allegedly neglecting their child.
    Chemutai narrated that the two met in 2005 when she was still a student at Moi University in Eldoret.

She was introduced to the then Eldoret North MP by a friend and later gave in to Ruto’s advances since she was gullible, young, and naive.

Ruto, later on, admitted to being the father of the said girl restating the daughter was well catered for including her education in private boarding school.
