Jacque Maribe takes time off social media, Kenyans react

“Time out. Time to leave me alone. Time to get me time and and be happy,” shared Maribe.

However, her post has elicited mixed reactions among her followers and fans, many arguing that the former news anchor might be going through a lot.

A section of Kenyans opted to advise her to seek counselling or a form of help that will put her back on track.

In another separate post (since deleted), Maribe had said: “Life… It has its ups and downs but with communication, tolerance, understanding and true friends like @simonkabu ,@ericomondi, I can now move forward. Thanks fam.”

Apology

On Thursday, both Maribe and Omondi apologized to their fans and followers, saying that they were wrong to wash their dirty linen in public.

“This is now bygones… We are sorry, we were wrong and we have a child to raise… We have also learned from this,” the two said.

Pleased with the move, Simon Kabu said that he was happy to see the two back to talking terms and even raising their child together.

“I’m happy now there is a white smoke at last, I just did what I could do because we are friends for a reason. We have talked and until we have agreed now,” said Kabu.
