A Kenyan woman, Susan Mwangi,
together and her three children are having it rough in Kenya after her husband
James Wairegi abandoned them.
According to Susan, her husband invited her and her kids to
Kenya for holiday also that their children would bond with their relatives and
hold a ruracio ceremony.
But this did not go well.
According to Susan, her
husband spent a few days with them in Kenya and later jetted back to the US
secretly living her and the kids with nothing. He didn’t even leave a dime for
them. It is now upon Susan to feed their children.
To add on that, it was reported that Wairegi had seized the
travel documents of his wife and three children leaving them stranded in Kenya.
“I Am
Alone Here With Three Kids And I Am Scared Of Being Here With Then During The
Elections,” Susan Said
Susan took to Facebook to
narrate how together with her kids, she has been suffering in Kenya after the
man she trusted abandoned them. This saw women in the famous KWITU group start
a campaign dubbed “Please bring Susan and the kids back home” to
help her raise funds to travel back to the US.
“Kwitu
Ladies, As You All Know What Predicament Happened To One Of Our Sister, Who Was
Abandoned By Her Spouse Back Home In Kenya After Going Home For A Family
Vacation With The Kids. She And Her 3 Children Were Left Behind Unawares And
Are Still Stuck In Kenya And In Desperate Need Of Financial Support. On Behalf
Of My Myself And All Kwitu Colleagues, We Are Pleading With You For Monetary
Assistance To Enable Her And Kids Return To The Usa To Continue With Life
Smoothly,” Read A Post In The Account.
So far they have raised
$13,845b surpassing their target which was $10k.
When contacted for a comment by Jambo news, James Wairegi denied
the allegations and accused his wife of slander.
“I
Did Not Take Their Documents Knowing That I Have Two Us Citizen Children. I
Would Not,” He Said
Adding that
“Ask Yourself Why Spend My Money
At The Ruracio And Then Turn Around And Dump Them Immediately After? It Doesn’t
Make Sense.”
