Popular Kikuyu gospel musician Karangu Muraya has responded to circulating online reports suggesting that he has requested a divorce from his first wife, Triza Njeri, amid claims that their marriage is facing challenges.

These allegations were brought to light by a woman named Shiro, a close friend of Triza.

In a recent TikTok post, Shiro claimed that Triza had confided in her, stating that Karangu Muraya had expressed his intention to end their long-term marriage.

"The message I have received today from Triza, amesema Karangu is asking for that divorce, so probably, Triza won't go back to that mansion and before he didn't want the divorce.

Secondly brother ya Triza alikuwa huko, amefukuzwa leo, so I don't think Triza watakubaliwa kurudi huko. Amesema Karangu amesema anataka hio divorce" Shiro said.

Karangu Muraya Reacts

Hours after the reports went viral, Karangu Muraya has now broken his silence and made it clear that he did not say such a thing about wanting a divorce.

"Where did I say so?" He asked.

The renowned gospel musician posed this question in the comment section of a Facebook user named Martoh Muriithi. Martoh had made a post highlighting how Karangu Muraya was in serious trouble.

In his post, Martoh argued that Karangu Muraya's situation amounted to bigamy, which is an offense under Kenyan law.

This is because the musician reportedly intends to marry Carol Kim as his second wife while still legally married to Triza Njeri.

Martoh further explained that the situation could work against Karangu Muraya, especially if Triza Njeri decided to take legal action against him.
