The Devil you know? Citizen TV’s LILIAN MULI runs back to her ex-husband, MOSES KANENE after dumping ‘Community Husband’(PHOTO)

Thursday, December 27, 2018- Citizen TV’s Lilian Muli is currently the talk of the town following her melodramatic rant on social media after dumping her baby daddy, Jared Nevaton Ombongi.

On Christmas Eve, the screen siren took to Instagram to announce she has broken up with the Kisii businessman whom she called a ‘community husband’


Two days after she delivered the ‘earth shaking news’ she took to social media to share a loved up photo of herself and ex-hubby , Moses Kanene and their son, Joshua.


 “Sunshine even on rainy days with Kanene and Josh,” she captioned the picture.

The controversial TV girl and Moses got married in September 2009 in a lavish wedding at the Windsor Golf and Country Club.

However, their marriage went south pretty fast and culminated in a messy divorce in 2016.



When she filed for divorce, she cited “adultery, cruelty and desertion” as reasons she wanted the marriage annulled.


She added that Mr. Kanene is a man of “unpredictable moods, ungovernable temper and violent in nature,” and that he had absconded his duty as a husband or as a father.


Despite the bitter divorce, it seems they are still good friends and Lilian is seeking solace in Kanene after Jared turned out to be her worst nightmare.


As they say, the Devil you know you is better than the angel you don’t.

Referendum is an unstoppable – FRANCIS ATWOLI tells WILLIAM RUTO – even UHURU is supporting it!!

Thursday December 27, 2018-Central Organization of Trade Union (COTU) Secretary General, Francis Atwoli, has said Deputy President William Ruto is alone in opposing the looming referendum.

Speaking during Maragori Cultural Festival in Mbale on Wednesday, Atwoli said all Kenyans are supporting the constitutional changes including President Uhuru Kenyatta and NASA leader, Raila Odinga.


“We must change this Constitution to accommodate all the political big wigs after all, constitutions are made with people in mind,” Atwoli said.


 He said Ruto should resign because he is opposing a referendum that is being supported by his boss Uhuru Kenyatta.


During his tour of Luo Nyanza early this month, Uhuru said the country requires a referendum to eliminate what he termed “a winner takes it all” system of government.


Opening up for the first time about his political bromance with NASA leader, Raila Odinga, Uhuru said the current presidential system was excluding some communities from leadership.

I will not vie for the presidency in 2022 – RAILA ODINGA says and urges RUTO to stop linking him to 2022 elections

Thursday December 27, 2018-National Super Alliance (NASA) leader, Raila Odinga, has told some Jubilee politicians to stop linking him to the 2022 presidential race.

Already some Jubilee politicians led by Elgeyo Marakwet Senator, Kipchumba Murkomen, have been claiming that Raila will be in the ballot come 2022.


But speaking during a Christmas service at the St Peters Anglican Church in Bondo ,Siaya County, the former Prime Minister sought to clear the air.


He maintained that he is not a candidate and has not announced his interest for the race and should not therefore be linked to the same.


"I have never said that am running for president in 2022, I have not said and I will not say. Let those people know that I am not a candidate," Raila said.


The veteran politician also fired salvos at people over-analyzing his March 9 truce with President Uhuru Kenyatta on grounds that it has links to the elections.


He noted that the nation is still fresh from the 2017 polls, urging leaders to shun politicking and concentrate on service delivery for the time being.


"We will deal with those issues when the time comes but for now we have agreed with Uhuru to unite our country. 2022 is still four years again, let those speaking about 2022 give us a break," he said.

Thursday, December 27, 2018- Lugari MP Ayub Savula is mourning the death of his daughter, Joan Chiri, who died on Wednesday night at Nairobi Hospital.

Chiri, 35, was hospitalized two weeks ago after falling ill.


Shewas a sales and marketing executive in various firms before moving into self employment according to her social media pages.


This is another blow for the Lugari legislator who was recently arraigned in court alongside his two wives for stealing Sh122 million from the Government Advertising Agency (GAA).



Mr Savula and his wife were freed on bond of Sh1 million shillings or a cash bail of Sh500, 000 each.


The vocal lawmaker was further slapped with abuse of office charges.

Thursday  December 27,2018-Jubilee Party Vice chairman, David Murathe, has said President Uhuru Kenyatta will not endorse Deputy President William Ruto‘s presidential bid in 2022.

Speaking during Maragoli Cultural Festival held on Wednesday in Mbale, Murathe who was the chief guest said Kenyans should not be hoodwinked into thinking President Uhuru Kenyatta will support Deputy President William Ruto in 2022.


“Let you not be deceived by the Tangatanga movement because both Ruto and Uhuru have served their full terms and should retire together," Murathe said.


He also said Ruto should not 'pretend' to be speaking on behalf of Jubilee on matters of the referendum, saying there was a need to change the Constitution so that it can be more accommodating.


“We don't want a Constitution where the winner takes it all; it's always a recipe for post-election violence," he said.


Bungoma Senator, Moses Wetang'ula, said the Luhya community is united and will prove the naysayers wrong in 2022.


"Nobody can stop an idea whose time has come; we are united like never before like Siamese twins," he said.


Wetang'ula said the top Luhya leadership is seeking to form alliances with other communities in order to clinch the presidency in 2022.

Thursday December 27, 2018- Former Kiambu Governor, William Kabogo, has urged former Gatanga MP, David Murathe, to shut up and stop speaking on behalf of the Kikuyu community.

On Wednesday during Maragori Cultural Festival in Mbale  , Murathe said the Kikuyu community will not support  Deputy President William Ruto’s Presidential bid in 2022 and urged him to honorably retire with President Uhuru Kenyatta in 2022.


“Let you not be deceived by the Tangatanga movement because both Ruto and Uhuru have served their full terms and should retire together," Murathe said.


But commenting on social media on Thursday, Kabogo said Murathe  is broke and that is the reason he is pretending to be speaking on behalf of Kikuyu community to gain relevance.


He also said Murathe is a "tumbocrat" since he once sold his Gatanga parliamentary seat to Royal Media Service (RMS) founder SK Macharia.


Murathe has no authority to speak on anyone’s behalf. Who is he to ask DP Dr. WSR to retire from politics in 2022 we’ve not forgotten he sold his parliamentary seat to SK Macharia. He’s politically broke,” Kabogo wrote.

Thursday December 27, 2018-Jubilee Party Vice chairman, David Murathe, on Wednesday said the Kikuyu community does not have a MoU with anyone regarding the 2022 elections.

Murathe, who was speaking during the 39th Maragoli Cultural Celebrations held at Municipal Grounds, Mbale, said President Uhuru Kenyatta and his deputy William Ruto had already led the government for two terms and should both retire after serving as President and Deputy President respectively.


"If he (William Ruto) has an MoU with Uhuru Kenyatta, then that was an agreement between two individuals," Murathe said.


“If you (Ruto) have led with Uhuru for two terms, what else do you want. We don't know someone who will guard us but we know someone who will break us. We will take someone who will safeguard Mt Kenya,” Murathe added.


Following his remarks, on Wednesday night, President Uhuru Kenyatta summoned   Murathe to Mombasa State House on Thursday to explain to him on why he wants to destroy Jubilee Party.


 “Yes he was summoned on Wednesday night,” said a senior State House aide who requested a condition of anonymity.

“People fall in and out of love, and maybe the plans I had for her did not work out.


“She is free to be out there and get other people. To be honest, we agreed that whatever we wanted to do together would not work out, and it was a peaceful agreement.” Said Chipukeezy who proposed to Viviane in 2016.


The diminutive comedian has taken to Instagram to flaunt his new catch despite promising to keep his private life off social media and she’s a sight for sore eyes.


  “Moving forward, you will hear very little about me and my personal life. And again, on my failed relationship, it is a non-issue,” he said.
