October 2, 2019, marked a new beginning for Jackie Maribe, a former Citizen TV news anchor and political reporter, who has been out of the limelight since her arrest earlier this year.
Maribe, who was arrested alongside her boyfriend Jowie Irungu in connection with the murder of Monica Kimani, has now found a new career path as a celebrity karaoke singer at Nairobi's 1824 Club.
According to sources, Maribe will be singing along with patrons at the club's Karaoke Tuesdays, bringing a touch of glamour to the entertainment scene.
Maribe's decision to quit her TV job was reportedly made to escape the prying eyes of the public, following the negative press she received after her arrest.
