Moses Marite, the former manager of popular Kenyan musician Samidoh, has been arrested and charged with fraud. The arrest stems from allegations of mishandling security deposits from a club in Sagana that had booked Samidoh for a performance.

According to reports, Marite accepted multiple advance payments on behalf of Samidoh without informing the artist. This led to disputes with various clubs, including the one in Sagana, where the missing Ksh 100,000 deposit was reported.

Samidoh severed ties with Marite in September due to these ongoing issues. Marite was subsequently arrested and arraigned in court on October 22nd. He is currently in custody and requires Ksh 100,000 bail to secure his release.

Friends and acquaintances of Marite have initiated a fundraising effort to raise the necessary bail amount. They have established a WhatsApp group to coordinate the collection of funds.

The incident has cast a shadow over Marite’s long-standing professional relationship with Samidoh, which began during their school days. The case is set to be heard on November 12th.

Popular Kenyan Mugithi musician Samidoh has publicly ended his professional relationship with longtime manager and friend, Moses Kimani Marite.

The announcement was made through an official statement by Samidoh Entertainment, confirming Marite’s immediate termination. The statement also cautioned the public that Marite is no longer authorized to conduct business or sign contracts on behalf of the artist.

The news has surprised many in the Kenyan entertainment scene, as Marite had been instrumental in Samidoh’s rise to fame, and their close professional relationship made the separation all the more unexpected.

Mugithi singer Samidoh became emotional during a church service at JCM along Thika Road on Sunday, August 25. He attended the service for the launch of the Chapati and Mandazi Mashinani forum, a campaign for the flour brand he represents as an ambassador.

Bishop Ben Kiengei of JCM praised Samidoh for his personal growth, saying, “I’m so happy to see you have become levelheaded now,” while encouraging the Kikuyu singer, who was on stage at the time.

It was an honor to be part of the launch and kickoff of the Chapati and Mandazi Mashinani forum. I am super excited to see a Gospel that is changing people’s lives.”

Bishop Kiengei further remarked, “If you see Samidoh coming to worship at JCM, he now has a good head on his shoulders!” His comment prompted laughter from the audience. During the service, Samidoh also sang several gospel songs, which appeared to be a form of prayer for him.

When asked by the Bishop why he was in church, Samidoh replied that he intended to become more religious and attend church regularly. The Bishop encouraged him, saying, “Come to church and see how good things can be—how well it can work out,” and Samidoh wholeheartedly agreed.

Bernice Saroni echoed this sentiment on Samidoh’s Instagram page, commenting, “Branch ya Boston ifunguliwe sasa.”

Mugithi artist Samidoh has stirred controversy by presenting a questionable view on men being deceitful in relationships.

Through his social media, Samidoh shared a statement seemingly justifying why men might cheat on the women they love. He expressed that it’s normal for a man to stray, even when he cares deeply for his partner.

As a father of five, Samidoh explained that a man who truly loves a woman may lie to her as a way to protect her feelings. “A man who loves you will always lie to you because he cares about your feelings. He would rather lie to you than hurt your feelings,” Samidoh stated.

In recent years, Samidoh has frequently made headlines due to the turmoil in his love life. The drama began in 2021 when he publicly apologized to his wife, Edday Nderitu, after admitting to an affair that resulted in a child with Karen Nyamu.

Despite the apology, Samidoh rekindled his relationship with Karen Nyamu months later, leading to the birth of a second child, which further upset Edday Nderitu. This prompted Edday to announce her decision to end their 15-year marriage, as she was unwilling to raise her three children in a polygamous setting.

Edday has since moved to the US with their children.

“Weren’t you also abandoned at the height of your romance?” Muigai teased, to which Samidoh responded with a touch of humor, drawing a comparison between the departure styles of their wives.

“Mine departed via plane, but yours departed on a motorcycle,” Samidoh remarked.

The banter continued as Muigai highlighted the convenience of his wife’s mode of departure compared to Samidoh’s situation, joking that Samidoh would need to apply for a visa to visit his wife.

“If I want mine, I can simply hop on a motorbike and reach her, but if you want yours, you’ll need to apply for a visa to see her,” Muigai joked.

However, Samidoh remained undeterred, citing his financial success and newfound ease of travel.

“With the wealth I’ve amassed, a trip abroad these days feels like a visit to my home country,” he quipped, eliciting laughter from his fans.

In April 2023, Samidoh’s first wife, Edday Nderitu, departed Kenya with their three children. Around the same time, Muigai Wa Njoroge’s first wife, Njeri, announced her departure from their polygamous union.

Samidoh, the renowned Mugithi singer and policeman, recently shared a poignant childhood experience that continues to weigh heavily on him.

The 33-year-old entertainer opened up about this encounter while reflecting on a TikTok video that caught his attention on his “for you” page.

The TikTok post invited users to share hurtful words or experiences that have left a lasting impact but were never voiced.

“What statement killed you but you pretended you were okay,” the post read. In response, a user shared a deeply emotional story involving a relative that deeply affected them.

Prompted by this comment, Samidoh took to Instagram to share his own heartbreaking story.

He recounted a moment from his high school years when a relative (whom he chose not to name) refused to give him money for a school trip, citing his status as an orphan and suggesting that he should stick to his means.

“I once pleaded with ‘someone’ to offer me Sh. 200 for a school trip to Nakuru Crater and she was like, Sami unafaa ujue wewe ni yatima hufai kujiwekelea maisha ya juu, (You should know that you are an orphan you should not try and live a high life,)

These are wounds that not even the most compassionate heart can easily heal from. Some relatives/parents/guardians can inflict unimaginable pain,” his post lamented.

Mugithi artist Samuel Muchoki, known as Samidoh, sparked varied reactions among his followers with a social media post discussing his journey through depression and betrayal.

Reflecting on overcoming tough times, Samidoh shared, “Tell them we survived depression, betrayal, and disappointments. Now we don’t see any big deal with anything.”

However, the response from his fans in the comment section was mixed, with some criticizing him for addressing betrayal given his own circumstances, including fathering children with both his wife and nominated senator Karen Nyamu.

In response to criticism from one follower named Nthiga Irene, Samidoh retorted, “Nthiga Irene, that’s why I said it’s not for your level of IQ, wait until tomorrow.” Similarly, he dismissed a comment from another follower, Esther Nickie, implying it was beyond her understanding.

In an interview, Samidoh discussed the challenges of fame and negativity, expressing his dislike for constant scrutiny. “There is a cost to everything. When I was herding cattle in Jorook, nothing would have happened to me because I was a nobody. But now, when I became famous, negativity comes with it. Life is a balance sheet. You focus. The problem is not me or us,” he explained.

Samidoh also shared his approach to addressing such matters with his eldest daughter, emphasizing the importance of clear communication amidst public scrutiny.

Acknowledging his role as a father to five children from two women, Samidoh stressed his commitment to being there for all his children equally. Despite the challenges, he affirmed, “I may not be many things but I’m a good father. Because I’m there for my children always. When it comes to time, when it comes to financial support, I’m always there for them, all of them.”

Mugithi singer Samidoh, known by fans as Samuel Muchoki, takes pride in his role as a father of five. In a recent interview, he emphasized his commitment to his children, ensuring they have his love, time, and financial support.

Samidoh, who rose to fame from his police officer days, acknowledges the challenges of celebrity.

“There’s a price to pay,” he said. “When I was nobody tending cattle in Ol Jorook, there was no negativity. Now, with fame comes some negativity, and you have to learn to manage it.”

He expressed frustration with media portrayals, stating,

“Things get blown out of proportion. Statements are misquoted, and stories are sensationalized.”

Despite these challenges, Samidoh remains dedicated to protecting his children. “My job is to sit down with them and explain that life can be complicated. If someone tells you something, verify it yourself before accepting it as truth.”

The interview comes on the heels of comments by nominated senator Karen Nyamu, who has expressed a desire to have more children with Samidoh.

The singer recently declared that he’s looking forward to graduate this year with a Bachelor’s degree in Business & IT. This will be among his numerous wins that he is yet to achieve this year. Currently, his first wife Edday Nderitu is in the United States.

Mugithi artist Samidoh takes his role as a father with utmost seriousness, a fact he candidly shared in a recent interview with SPM Buzz.

Despite juggling his career as a police officer with the National Police Service Commission and his nationwide entertainment engagements, Samidoh prioritizes his parental duties above all else.

Reflecting on his newfound fame and the inevitable scrutiny that comes with it, Samidoh acknowledges the balancing act required to navigate the positives and negatives of being in the public eye.

“There’s a cost to everything. When I was just a herdsman in Jorook, I didn’t face certain things because I was nobody. But now that I’m famous, there’s a bit of negativity that comes with it. Life is like a balance sheet, with its ups and downs. So when negativity comes your way, you learn to filter it out and focus. The problem isn’t with me or us,” he explained.

He also takes the responsibility of guiding his eldest daughter, especially regarding the misconceptions that may arise from his online presence.

“The problem lies with how people blow things out of proportion, misquote others, and twist facts. So, my job is to sit down with my children and explain that in life, people may manipulate situations, but you need to stay true to yourself,” he emphasized.

As a father of five children from two women, Karen Nyamu and Edday Nderitu, Samidoh sees his parental role as a duty he wholeheartedly embraces.

“Isn’t it evident that they’re all doing well? The only downside is if a child lacks food… My responsibility is to raise my kids, and I raise them all equally. I may not be perfect, but I’m a good father. I’m always there for my children—emotionally, financially, and in every other way,” he affirmed.

Samidoh attributes his achievements to his faith, acknowledging the role of God in his journey.

“If it weren’t for God, where would I be?” he concluded, expressing gratitude for his success.
