Samido, a cop turned Kikuyu benga artiste, is a married man. The musician is married to Edith Nderitu and together, they have two children. Last year, he got into a whirlwind romantic affair with Nairobi socialite and politician Karen Nyamu and sired a baby boy. Although he claimed to be happily married, he never ended the entanglement with Nyamu and kept her as his mistress.
But this week, their relationship, once again, flared into the limelight after Nyamu took to social media claiming Samido had beaten her up. In a live Instagram conversation, Nyamu claims she is three months pregnant with Samido’s baby despite the musician beating her up and smashing her phone.
