Karen Nyamu said she would not be letting Samidoh go anytime soon.

Nominated senator Karen Nyamu has given her account of the happenings in a Dubai Club where Mugithi singer Samido was booked a live performance.

The senator is believed to be involved in an affair with the singer despite him being officially married to Edday Nderitu.

On the night of Friday, December 16, the politician was involved in a scuffle with the singer and his wife, causing a frenzy on the interwebs.

She attributes the happenings to abuse of alcohol, saying she would quit drinks as one of her resolutions in 2023.

Speaking in a live feed on her Instagram page, the politician pleaded with Kenyans to pray for her to shun drama in the oncoming year.

"I have woken up and found I have been tagged everywhere. I am going to change in 2023. Alcohol is not good. If love would lead to me causing drama, please pray for me," she said.

She however defended herself on the accusations of getting on the stage uninvited; she also vowed not to let the musician go citing the children they have sired together.

"Who did I offend by going on stage? I was having fun. When I have fun I go there to dance a little before coming back to sit," she said.

"I'm not leaving him (Samidoh). We must take care of the children," she added.


The show had been smooth with revelers enjoying every bit of it before Nyamu sought the company of the singer.

Video seen by Nairobi Leo shows her walking into the club proceeding straight to where Samidoh was and sat on his lap.

Edday was at the time sitting close to Samidoh. The move sparked a confrontation as Nyamu and Samidoh are seen in the video exchanging words.

Edday is seen rising to the occasion and attempting to pull Nyamu away.

Edday had earlier shared an image of her with her husband in Dubai and captioned it:

"Ending the year on a high note with family and friends. Dubai lazima mugithi ishike.”

Nyamu also shared an image of herself in Dubai.

Samidoh was performing with other Mugiithi artists among them Joyce Wa Mama, Karangu Wa Muraya, DJ Dbul.
