Esther Passaris, a Nairobi woman representative, has clarified her stance on being a second wife in a polygamous relationship. In an interview with Citizen TV, Passaris revealed that she has two children with her husband, Pius Ngugi, who also has another wife.

Passaris, known for her beauty, has been accused of being a magnet for many men, which she believes contributes to her popularity in politics.

However, Passaris has faced criticism from the public for being a second wife, with many viewing her as a 'number two' in her husband's life.

Passaris has now come out to reveal that she is indeed a second wife, and she has accepted her role in the relationship.

"I couldn't deny it, I had to accept it. There was a time when I was in a difficult situation, and I had to take what was given to me," Passaris said in the interview.

Passaris believes that being in a polygamous relationship comes with its challenges, including the difficulty of balancing time between multiple wives and children.

Despite the challenges, Passaris has found a way to cope with the situation, and she is determined to make the most of it.
