Published on August 3, 2020, Mama Ali Kiba's recent interview with East Africa TV has shed light on the marital issues affecting her son, Ali Kiba, and his daughters-in-law.

Ali Kiba married his Kenyan wife, Amina Khalef, in April 2018, with his brother, Abdul Kiba, following suit a week later.

However, the couple's marriage problems led to Amina returning to her father's home in Mombasa, and Ali Kiba's other baby mamas also ended their relationships with him due to issues within the family.

Mama Ali Kiba was accused of being the problem, but in her interview, she revealed that her daughters-in-law were complaining about their relationship strifes with her son, which she attributed to their upbringing.

"Yes, my daughters-in-law are complaining, but it's about how people are brought up. I love all my daughters-in-law, and they know that," Mama Ali Kiba said.

She further explained, "I don't understand why they are complaining, I told my kids to make sure that their wives live well. But how they were brought up is different from how I brought up my kids, that is where the problem is."

According to Mama Ali Kiba, the daughters-in-law would often visit her home, where they would take their children and return them later.
