Karen Nyamu appeared before the UDA Party disciplinary committee regarding the December 2022 Dubai drama.

Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has advised Mugithi singer Samuel Muchoki alias Samidoh to take charge of his extramarital affairs. 

Speaking on Monday, January 23, during the burial of Trade and Investments CS Moses Kuria’s sister in Gatundu South, Kiambu County, the second in command asked Samidoh not to let his private matters spill into the public domain.

“Wewe Samidoh ni rafiki yangu, na unajua vile tunakupenda lakini kuna pahali unatuangusha kidogo. Samidoh u control hii watu yako.. hakuna ndovu hushindwa na pembe zake,” Gachagua stated.

He added, “Wewe ni rafiki yangu nitakuketisha chini. Hatutaki Wazungu wajue mambo yetu vile tunakaanga hapa, unajua hii wazungu ni ya mtu moja moja, sasa mkienda huko ikiwa namna hiyo wanatuelewa sana na hatutaki mambo yetu itoke huko inje, so wewe upange maneno yako na ukishindwa we ni one of our officers tukakudiscpline, tutakataza wewe kwenda ngambo ama kama utaenda utaenda we peke yako ndio tusipate aibu."

Gachagua’s remarks come a month after nominated Senator Karen Nyamu was caught on video having an altercation with Samidoh and his first wife at a Dubai club.

Following the incident, the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) disciplinary committee summoned Nyamu over her actions.

The nominated senator was ordered to appear before the committee on December 23, 2022, but failed to turn up and instead sent her lawyer who asked for more time.

She appeared before the UDA disciplinary committee on Friday, January 20 but was given more time to respond to allegations against her.

“Nominated Senator Karen Nyamu today appeared before the UDA disciplinary Committee chaired by Charles Njenga. The senator was allowed more time to respond to the allegations levelled against her by a party member. The committee adjourned the matter to 9.00 am on 24th February,” the UDA party stated.
