The woman at the center of a nasty child neglect case with former
National Assembly Speaker Kenneth Otiato Marende was a form four leaver
when the love affair begun, a court was told yesterday. The love
blossomed as from 2008.
Jennifer Nkouwa whom Marende has been ordered to pay child upkeep
money to the tune of Ksh 457,000 had just cleared form four when Marende
started dating her. Before the year ended, she was already pregnant
with Otiato’s child who she safely delivered in 2009.
Marende had just been elected the speaker of the National Assembly
around this time which coincided with the early tumultuous period of the
Grand Coalition Government.
Marende has been ordered to pay Sh180,000 for school fees and related expenses, Sh90,000 for rent and Sh60,000 for clothing.
Jennifer, through a sworn affidavit by Njagi Nyaboke claims she met
Marende in 2008, after she had finished form four. The former speaker
started paying her shelter and upkeep in Langata but when she conceived
in 2009, he moved her to a bigger house in Westlands. After the 2013
elections, Marende moved her to Kileleshwa but stopped paying her the
expenses in November 2013.
