Nominated Senator Karen Nyamu is once again in the spotlight after sharing photos with popular mugithi musician Waithaka wa Jane, who is widely associated with media personality Muthoni wa Kirumba. The images, showing Nyamu and Waithaka enjoying themselves at a lively club setting, quickly ignited online speculation about the nature of their relationship.
In the photos, Nyamu can be seen gazing intently into Waithaka’s eyes, while he responded with hearty laughter. Her caption accompanying the pictures further fueled the buzz, as she playfully asked, “Who is a Muthoni of Kirumba?” The seemingly light-hearted jab led many to question whether there was more to their interaction than friendship.
Adding to the curiosity, Waithaka also shared the same photos but chose not to comment, maintaining an air of mystery around their interaction. The move reminded many of Nyamu’s previous highly publicized relationship with musician Samidoh, who was married to Edday Nderitu at the time. Nyamu’s involvement with Samidoh resulted in the birth of two children and caused widespread public debate.
The latest photos sparked an immediate wave of reactions online. Social media users had a lot to say, with many humorously warning Muthoni wa Kirumba about Nyamu’s reputation. Comments flooded in, with some jokingly suggesting that once Nyamu sets her sights on a man, his current relationship is practically over.
One commenter noted that Muthoni should “consider herself single” now that Nyamu had shown interest. Another playfully referenced the famous Dolly Parton song “Jolene,” suggesting that Muthoni should plead with Nyamu not to take her man. Others pointed out that Nyamu seems to have a fondness for mugithi artists and “one-man guitar” performers, hinting at a pattern in her romantic preferences.
While many comments were humorous, some users expressed criticism, suggesting that Nyamu often crosses boundaries in matters of the heart. However, a few fans defended her, praising her beauty and boldness, noting that she is free to associate with whoever she wishes.
This is not the first time Nyamu has found herself at the center of a social media storm. Recently, during a tour of Mt. Kenya with President William Ruto, a fan questioned her credibility as a senator, suggesting that her popularity was more about her physical attributes than her political contributions. In true Nyamu fashion, she responded with humor, thanking her curves for contributing to her success and brushing off the criticism.
The latest incident with Waithaka wa Jane further cements Nyamu’s reputation as a bold and unapologetic figure who continues to live her life in the public eye without fear of judgment. Whether the interaction between Nyamu and Waithaka was innocent or something more remains to be seen, but one thing is clear — when Karen Nyamu makes a move, people are guaranteed to talk.
