Mariga to Kenyans: Jubilee is not using me. I want to help Kibra

Posted on by Pauline Syombua

Famous footballer McDonald Mariga has urged Kenyans to stop claiming that he’s being used by Jubilee Party after announcing that he’s also after Kibra’s seat.

Mariga hopes to replace the late Ken Okoth in Kibra but many were quick to claim he shouldn’t run for MP. The footballer, however, said that he was also born there and all he wants is to help the residents.

“I was raised her [Kibra] in Karanja, I know how it is like to live in a slum. I’m not being used by anyone. I want to give back to the community.” Mariga said. 

Change

Mariga went on to say running for office will not affect his football fans because he just wants to make a change in the community.

“It won’t interfere at all with my stature. Running for office is a decision I came to after a lengthy discussion with my family. It is also my way of giving back to the community.” he said.

Footballer McDonald Mariga will walk down the aisle next year in an exclusive, invite only wedding, and with the way things are going, former Citizen TV host Joey Muthengi might not be invited despite being in the surroundings.

Mariga’s relatives have been complaining lately that Joey has been entertaining rumors that the two are a couple despite Mariga having a wife.

Moving to Italy

According to the relatives, Mariga is set to walk down the aisle mid next year in summer with the love of his life, the woman who sired his baby girl. The woman goes by the name Kenisha and fellow footballer Victor Wanyama will be the best man.

“He has a daughter with a mixed-race woman, Kenisha, and they are planning to get married in Spain in summer 2019,” a family member said, “and Victor Wanyama is the best man.” said the relative. 

Joey said that she’ll go for holiday next year January in Italy where Mariga stays but didn’t drop any clues on whether it was the wedding she might have been invited. The trip was mostly work-related.

The source also went on to complain about Joey ruining the relationship with her online antics.

“We are tired of these slay queen girls trying to break up happy homes. I met him(Mariga) on his last holiday in July with the sister Cynthia, his wife-to-be and kid in hand. Joey should come clean about the ‘relationship’. Using his fame for her own personal gain is wrong.”
