June 28, 2021, will be remembered as the day Everlyne Ikandi, a Mombasa resident, publicly claimed that President Uhuru Kenyatta fathered her two children, Fadhil Jomo and Ahadi Maria.
Ikandi, a psychotherapist, took to social media to share her story, accompanied by photos of the children, in a bid to seek the president's help.
“Mr. President at the coast this weekend. Please address this issue before you go back to your station in Nairobi,” Ikandi pleaded on Facebook.
Ikandi's claims are not new, as she first made them two years ago, but this time around, she is seeking help, not attention.
She alleged that the president has failed to take care of the children, leaving her to raise them alone, and that she has been suffering as a result.
Ikandi's post has sparked a mix of reactions, with some people sympathizing with her, while others believe she is just seeking attention.
It remains to be seen how the president will respond to Ikandi's plea for help.
