By Sammy WaweruMugithi maestro Samuel Muchoki, popularly known by the stage name as Samidoh, has been in the public limelight for good, bad and at times extremely ugly reasons.
Lately, the Kairitu Gakwa hitmaker, who remains a darling to his fans, has been on the news for his continued illicit affair with nominated senator Karen Nyamu.
The musician, who is married to Edday Nderitu, has sired two children with the politician. His troubled marriage appears to be on the brink of collapse after Edday travelled with their three children to the US in May.

As drama the surrounding Samidoh and the two women in his life couple continues to unfold, Nairobi News has established that the Kikuyu musician, who is also a police officer, is eyeing a political seat in 2027 General Election.
