Posted on by Pauline Syombua

McDonald Mariga’s may not contest for the Kibra seat in the November 7 by-election after his name could not be found in the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) register of voters.

IEBC returning officer Beatrice Muli on Tuesday told Mariga to seek redress with the IEBC Disputes Resolution Board.

“We have invalidated Mariga’s nomination,” she said.

Muli said other documents presented to them were in order.

“Mine was to confirm that the aspirant meets requirements. I have verified and checked and I could not find his details.  At this point my hands are tied,” she added.

Politician Khalwale said that it’s not true Mariga has never voted, “I have evidence that my candidate is a voter and has an election card number. This is very serious.”

He’s married!! Mariga’s family not happy with Joey Muthengi always joking about dating him 

Posted on by Pauline Syombua

Former Citizen TV host Joey Muthengi has been entertaining Kenyans a lot lately who have been claiming she’s in a relationship with footballer McDonald Mariga.

She recently even shared that she plans to move to Italy to stay with Mariga after she resigned from Citizen TV.

“Mariga is a cool person and he and I are real friends. I am very fond of him. I will be moving to Italy in January and I guess time will tell what next,” she said when asked if they were an item.

Stop the jokes

Well, as much as Joey enjoys being called Mariga’s new girlfriend, Mariga’s relatives are not happy with her theatrics.

A family member of the football star has come out to vehemently deny that Joey Muthengi is in a relationship with the football darling and suggested she’s keeps off the rumours.

“I’m not sure why Joey has been lying to Kenyans and her fans,” said McDonald Mariga’s family member. 

The family member went on to add that Mariga has a wife and that’s why he hasn’t entertained the jokes like Muthengi has been doing.

“I can CATEGORICALLY state that they are NOT dating. He is a married guy! Have you noticed he has not said anything or commented on the story only Joey feeding lies to stay relevant after being fired. The guy would have claimed her by now,” the source added.

Joey after quitting Citizen TV:  I’ll soon be leaving for Italy to stay with Mariga

It’s official, Joey Muthengi is no longer part of the Citizen TV team after she handed her resignation last week.

Word on the street claims that the sexy presenter was paid a clean Ksh 8 million by Betin to endorse the betting firm, a reason why she decided to take the check despite Citizen’s management being against it.

Fans are still obsessed with her relationship with footballer Mariga and want her to date the man. She has insisted their relationship is very much professional.

Move to Italy

She recently spoke to Nairobian where she revealed she’ll continue working with the legendary footballer and is planning to move to Milan, Italy very soon.

“Mariga is a cool person. I am fond of him. I will be moving to Italy in January and I guess time will tell what next,” she told MondayBlues.

She added:

“I don’t know where this (relationship) will take us. Ask Mariga. But we will see what becomes of it. Unfortunately, I just felt that what I was going to do with life did not coincide with what Citizen TV had for me. Besides, I had a good time there and I will miss everyone, especially my fans,” she said.

 

 

What Joey Muthengi had to say after Kenyans asked her to start dating Mariga already

Posted on by Pauline Syombua

Some Kenyans believe Joey Muthengi’s perfect match has finally arrived and it’s time she makes a move before it’s too late.

That man is none other than footballer Mariga.

Kenyans have been pressuring the 10 over 10 star to make her move and tie him down but it seems she’s not into him. Or, she’s just pretending. Or maybe, Mariga is just too young for him–we know the kinda men Joey loves.

A fan posted on Facebook Group Kenya saying that the relationship can be lovely.

“Lmao @ Kuchambua. Our relationship already fell apart. I’m sure this will be brutal,” said Joey Muthengi in a post on her Instagram page.

Relationship

Joey said her relationship with Mariga was purely professional and it stops there.

“No. We are not dating. The Milan outing was a business trip with a betting company (the billboards are up in Nairobi). Mariga is a very good professional friend of mine and our trip to Italy was purely work,” said Joey Muthengi.

Career comes first
