Samidoh invites Karen Nyamu to matrimonial home, Edday Nderitu reacts
By Elizabeth NgigiA recent video posted by nominated senator Karen Nyamu at the Nyandarua home of musician Samidoh has ignited a mixed reaction online, sparking debates and discussions among netizens.
The duo chose to celebrate Christmas Day together, bringing along their children and some of Samidoh’s family members to his village home.
In a video shared by Karen Nyamu, the group was seen enjoying nyama choma around a bonfire, capturing a seemingly festive atmosphere.
Notably, the video also featured Samidoh tending to his poultry birds while Karen Nyamu recorded the charming scene.
“Vile watoto wana enjoy ushago itabidi we extend Merry Christmas!!” Karen captioned the video.
On Boxing Day, Karen shared another video revealing outdoor activities, this time in a swimming pool in Nyahururu.
However, the images and videos have sparked a variety of reactions, with some online users criticizing Karen for visiting a house that was previously occupied by Samidoh’s first wife, Edday Nderitu, in her absence.
Samidoh had built the house long before his relationship with Karen Nyamu and the birth of their two children.
Some online comments suggested that Samidoh should consider building a separate house for Karen Nyamu rather than bringing her to his first wife’s marital home.
Achieng’ Odinga commented on the situation, saying, “In the Kikuyu community, a man should build houses for his wives; that’s how sacred polygamy is.”
Ruth Anderson questioned the nature of Samidoh’s previous marriage, asking whether it was conducted in a church or traditional way.
She emphasized that if it was a “come we stay” arrangement, then Samidoh is free to move on like anyone else looking for a suitable partnership.
Flo Mutea expressed her opinion, stating that another woman’s house would be a deal-breaker for her.
Martha Daniels raised the hypothetical scenario of the first wife explicitly stating she’s not coming back and encouraging the man to move on.
In response, Edday commented that Samidoh has disrespected their children.
She stated, “The good thing is that those kids he has disrespected, he will be seeing them on social media just like a stranger.”
Edday Nderitu is currently in the US with her three children.
