Mike Sonko’s daughter Saumu Mbuvi topped headlines in 2017 after bashing his then lover Benson Gatu who was allegedly cheating on her while she was pregnant.
Though Mbuvi never really got into details of what happened, she has now revealed why she took to social media to call out her ex-lover then.
“I had moved in with Gatu, when he started acting up. He would claim to have gone for a business trip, and I would later learn that it was all lies. He was cheating on me with another woman. That is why I even posted about it on social media because it was someone I knew, a daughter to one of the governors. I do not mean to tarnish his name or his political ambitions, but this is one story I have to make clear,” she revealed in an interview with People Daily.
Third trimester
In the interview, she also revealed that Gatu would leave her in the house to go and have fun with his side dish at the coast.
“During my last trimester, the guy had disappeared. Even for clinical appointments and other important matters, he was nowhere to be seen. Many are the nights I used to cry myself to sleep. I ended up frustrated, and when I couldn’t take it anymore, I moved back to my parents’ home. One thing I have come to understand is that relationships fail. I am not and will not be the first one to be cheated on and left. Just because I am in the limelight doesn’t mean everything has to be perfect.” she said.
