Popular Mugithi singer Samuel Muchoki, better known as Samidoh, finally took to social media to acknowledge his partner, Senator Karen Nyamu’s birthday, but the timing of his post sparked doubts about its authenticity.
Many Kenyans had been eagerly anticipating Samidoh’s public recognition of Nyamu, who had been consistently showering him with affectionate messages on social media. However, the singer’s post did not arrive until an hour after Nyamu’s birthday had officially ended, fueling speculation about its genuineness.
Sharing an undated photo of himself embracing Nyamu on Instagram Stories, Samidoh simply wrote,
“Happy birthday, bae.”
However, the late-night timing and the lack of any personal touch in the message led many to question whether Samidoh had genuinely penned the post.
Some netizens suggested that the post might have been written under duress, while others speculated that it might have been crafted by Nyamu herself, given the level of English used.
Regardless of the doubts surrounding the post, it did serve as a belated acknowledgment of Nyamu’s birthday, albeit one that left more questions than answers among their fans and followers.
