'I Cheated!' - Artist Samidoh Confesses
Let the record show that Samuel Muchoki, alias Samidoh, is breaking his silence on recently resurfaced cheating allegations levelled against him. On Tuesday, The Mumbi crooner took to Facebook to address the rumor that he had an affair and sired a child with politician Karen Nyamu."It is true I had a friendship with Ms Karen Nyamu," wrote the married father of three. "It's this involvement that led to the birth of an innocent child whom I have and will always support both emotionally and materially. I am a proud father to my children." He not only apologized to his fans for "setting a bad example" but also took "full responsibility for my mistakes which I regret." "I have never left my wife of 11 years for another woman. I apologized to her and my family before."Nyamu, in a rejoinder wrote on Instagram, "Running away from reality mpaka lini….It was easier to declare the whole truth and not just half of it because you will soon become a slave to apologies. You have done nothing wrong babe."The speculation about the nature of Samidoh and Nyamu's relationship began last year but the two neither confirmed nor denied the claims. Check out some of the online reactions below.The story of this young boy Samidoh has been brought to my attention. This is what I want to say, youths should embrace polygamy and avoid this embarrassments. We can never run away from our culture. Let him marry Karen Nyamu too and coexist in love.
