"I am from Homa Bay and not related to Kenyattas as people have claimed. At first, I ignored the rumors until I felt there was a need to clarify because I received so many calls on Friday evening,"she said.
She condemned Kenyans for sharing unverified information on social media.
"It has become a norm for people to share unverified information which is unfair to others especially when families are involved,"she was quoted as saying.
She added that the photo was taken during a wedding of Citizen Radio’s Syombua Osiany in which she was the best maid and Chiloba the best man
At the same time, Chiloba also dismissed the allegation during an interview with a local daily.
