Pay Ksh20,000 monthly
Itumbi’s reaction comes after a judge directed that he pay Ksh20,000 monthly for a child he fathered before the case is heard and determined.
Itumbi had asked for a DNA test, which came back and ascertained he is the father of the child.
The mother had filed the case claiming Mr Itumbi deserted the child from birth and has refused to provide any form of support.
