Mutua’s wife shrugs off accusation of being a husband snatcher
The First Lady of Machakos county Lilian Ng’ang’a has refrained from being drawn into accusations of being a husband snatcher.
Ms Ng’ang’a is the second wife of Governor Alfred Mutua and has often been subjected to condemnations on social media for breaking up his first family.
Last week, the condemnations erupted afresh on Twitter, with a user accusing her of hypocrisy.

But Ms Ng’ang’a responded by telling the user to focus on a more ‘beneficial’ engagement.

Undeterred, the user told Ms Ng’ang’a that her role in advocacy for women’s rights cannot wash away the accusations.

Governor Mutua and his first wife, Dr Josephine Thitu, divorced.
Dr Thitu, a pharmacist, also claims ownership of the couple’s house in Westlands.
The governor at one point attempted to block Dr Thitu from leaving the country with their three children for a vacation in 2014.
Governor Mutua is on record for dismissing the reports as lies.
