MP Recalls Being Roughed Up at Billionaire Father's Burial

During the burial of the late billionaire, Mbugua Githere, his son, EALA MP, Simon Mbugua, encountered an embarrassing situation after he was humiliated by his step-brothers.

The MP recalls that he had gone for his father's burial in Gachie when the incident took place.

"I went to Gachie to bury him. I had just bought a Mercedes Benz from Kiambu Senator, Kimani Wamatangi and when I arrived, my step-brothers thought I had come to fight them over inheritance," Mbugua narrated.

He went ahead and stated that his step-brothers threw away some of the foodstuffs he had with him, while his step-sister told him to leave the place.  

"I removed whatever I had carried in my boot and gave to one of the family members. When one of my step-sisters saw that, she said that the family did not want anything from me and that I should leave," he narrated.

The former Kamukunji MP disclosed that he was a product of a secret love affair between his late mother and the billionaire.

"My mother was Githere's mpango wa kando. He never married her but he was still my biological father. I was basically raised by a single mother. Despite being a billionaire, he never helped me in any way," he noted.

Speaking to Kenyans.co.ke, the MP stated that the experience taught him a valuable lesson that totally changed his life.

"I said to myself, I don't want to be a beggar, I want to work hard and get my own money and I declared that I would be richer than my father," he proclaimed.
