NAIROBI, Kenya Nov 4 – Former Machakos First Lady Lilian Ng’ang’a now says her life is in danger following alleged threats and intimidation from Governor Alfred Mutua.
In the first interview since her much-publicised break-up with Mutua, Lilian says she has not had peace since June, citing threats from Mutua.
“Mr. Mutua is overreacting to our separation. I indicated I wanted to move on with my life, but he thought otherwise. I requested for a mature and amicable separation and reminded him that we were not married. However, he has now turned me into his number one enemy and threatened to crush me into ash as he takes away everything that I have and owned,” she said.
As soon as she walked out of Mutua’s life, Lilian says he took away her car and has since resorted to numerous intimidation tactics–some directed her friends.
Former Machakos First Lady Lilian Ng’ang’a when she addressed a press conference at the law firm of lawyer Philip Murgor in Nairobi on November 4, 2021.
Addressing a press conference in the company of lawyer Philip Murgor, Lilian accused Mutua of illegally transferring her company shares to her sister among other violations.
Lilian says she has already reported the violations to police and urged speedy investigations, including for Gender Based Violence.
Lilian separated with Mutua two months ago and is now dating musician Julius Owino commonly known as Juliani.
She further revealed that Mutua demanded through his lawyers that she returns all the money that he had spent on her, or else she would “face the consequences”.
“He has demanded that I retract all statements I had made on social media regarding our breakup, or he would harm people close to me. He also stated that he had offers from people to kill them and he threatened that he might take on the offer,” she added.
On the transfer of shares, Lilian claims Mutua forged her signatures and transfered 45 percent of her shares from Ndash Enterprises, the hotel company that she co-owned with the governor, to his sister, Ann Mbandi Mutua, among further violations.
“At no point did I execute a transfer of my shares or otherwise transfer my 1800 shares (45%) shareholding in the company to him, let alone to his sister,” she said.
“I am publicly requesting Mr. Mutua to immediately return my property, cease threatening my life and those around me and stop his abuse of power and bullying,” she added.
She had filed a restraining order against Mutua in October and had already reported the violations to the police and urged the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) Noordin Haji and Inspector General Hillary Mutyambai to initiate investigations, including for Gender Based Violence.
