Moses Kimani Marite, the longtime manager of popular Mugithi star Samidoh, has broken his silence after being dismissed from his role.
In a message, Marite expressed gratitude and humility following the termination of his services, which was announced publicly by Samidoh Entertainment.
An unexpected departure
The sudden decision to part ways with Marite has sparked widespread speculation in the entertainment industry, especially considering his close professional and personal relationship with Samidoh.
The termination notice issued by Samidoh Entertainment declared that Marite was no longer authorised to represent or conduct business on behalf of the musician, effective immediately.
