In an application filed under a certificate of urgency, the nominated MCA wants the court to compel Kamanda to pay for her one-year-old child's maintenance.

She wants Kamanda ordered to pay monthly child upkeep totaling to Sh220,000.

“Kamanda be ordered to be providing Kshs 220,000,00 per month being expenses for maintenances of the minor and provide school fees and school-related expenses when she became of school-going age,” She says in court documents.

The woman says she met the veteran politician in 2017 and began an intimate relationship with him, later becoming pregnant and giving birth to the infant on June 10th, 2018.

She wants Kamanda to pay a monthly house rent of Sh70,000, Sh15,000 for house help, food (Sh30,000), milk and fruits (Sh10,000) diapers and toiletries (Sh15,000), utilities including water, gas, Dstv, garbage collection, and transport (Sh35,000), entertainment (Sh10,000), clothing (Sh15,000) and miscellaneous (Sh20,000).

She accuses Kamanda of neglecting his parental responsibility, adding that she has single-handedly raised the child since he was born one year ago.

    Swali ni: Huyu MCA hana bwana. Tena hakujua yakua huyu kamanda ni mzee na ana nyumba yake? Kweli tumeacha mila.

    Haujui PESA za viongozi Kenya huanguka kutoka Miti za Uchina?

    @Kijana, I applaud what this MCA is doing- robbing Peter to give to Paul. Nyandarua is a neglected County and any way Nyandarua people can be able to get money from the pockets of Kiambu and Nairobi people the better for Nyandarua. I wish many Nyandarua women can entrap Kiambu or Nairobi tycoons with out of wedlock kids so that they can be forced to pay child support money that help improve Nyandarua economy. Also it is good for interbreeding in order improve gene pole for those two Counties. Nyandarua people's IQ score averages between 124 to 134 while Kiambu and Nairobi IQ score averages between 80 and 89. The difference in their intellectual level is reflected in the type of governors each of the three counties have

    Truth be said what was the
    intention of catching a pregnancy with an old politician old enough to be your grandfather? Gold diggers never succeed.

    @Ndugu Geoffrey. Vijana wengi hasa wa kike nchini Kenya wamepagawa na pepo mchafu wa tamaa ya pesa. Uzinifu sasa ni halali bora fedha ipatikane.

    Slay Queens! wachaneni na guka. Kamanda is almost 90 yrs old. Money is not all the child needs from the father. Children need love, guidance, protection and the presence of the father in the house. During visiting days in school watoi husema baba yao ni guka sababu ya embarrassment.

    Hehehe! Ati ati fruits and entertainment? Hehehe...

    ....and I am called crazy for advocating that men consider vasectomies once they no longer wish to be parents. This will save you and yours the heartache of paying for and raising an unplanned kid.

    Well spoken, prevention is better than cure.

    Perhaps he was checking to see whether he will " rise up" to the occasion. What he failed to understand is there was a very ripe beautiful egg awaiting on the other end and an old grumpy little snake swimming would be good enough to reproduce. Gross to say the least.

    Senility. This is a very old man and never knew what he was doing because of his age. Senile man cannot sign a contract. This is a case of elderly abuse. The slay Queen needs to be prosecuted for elderly abuse. She is a con-woman.

    Plus as a MCA, she can afford to raise a child. Kwani how do poor unemployed women raise their kids???

  13. lwkJun 7, 2019

    waah
    my friend MCA whoever is advising you is misleading
    just raise your child and let not us know the father of the kid cos is shameful.
    you are tarnishing your name

    The older a man gets,the unhealthier his sperms get.And that means changes of producing unhealthy child increases.If it is indeed his child,and not the shamba boy'siwould hope that the kid is healthy. If the kid has some kid of disability,then ican see why that much a month would help out.

    And of the 220,000 how much is the mca contributing? These are the things that ail our society. Immorality and irresponsible behaviour..

  17. MgeniJun 9, 2019

    It's Very Very Simple dunga dunga bila "socks" Lazima utalea. Hii ndio shida inasumbua wanaume wengi Kenya. They are all up in arms forgetting that they are part of a society that should nurture and protect women and children. Wacheni Kamanda abebe mzigo wake pekee yake. Ama kama mlikuwa na yeye akitiana ball mtetee

    did you all notice the MCA is not named?

    The woman invested her thighs, lying under a smelly old man. She is now tapping her flow of wealth. Those of you who are negative are being insensitive. She is trying to reap where she planted.
