Dennis Itumbi leads the pack in birthday wishes to Maribe


State House Secretary of Digital Communication Dennis Itumbi serenaded Citizen TV’s Jacque Maribe on her birthday in an Instagram post that went viral on Tuesday.

Itumbi wrote how Maribe’s magic enabled her to survive a tough year and asked her to choose a rainy morning when he would come with an umbrella to catch a rain drop and place it on her bicep and watch it roll down.

In his coded message, Itumbi wrote that all he wanted was a chance to see Maribe re-introduce herself in 2019.

I wrote this one late, Kindly carry it to the car as you go to court today, That is why I slip this under your door, Happy Birthday Jacque Maribe, Been standing outside your door, With pen and notebook, Thinking how Tragic a year you had, Impressed by the Magic you have, Aware that like someone said, A challenge, only becomes an obstacle when you bow to it. So here my birthday note, At least one day this year find a very rainy mid-morning, I will come with an umbrella, So that, I can hold just one raindrop for you, place it on your bicep and watch it roll down. I ask for no more, Just a chance to watch you re-introduce yourself in 2019, With your wounds – Yes. With your visible scars – Yes. But with fresh stamina.. Undettered passion Because you are, Jacque Maribe. Happy Birthday!

Hot 96 FM radio presenter Shix Kapyenga, in her message to BFF Maribe, wrote how 2018 had been a nightmare for the birthday girl.

Maribe and her fiance Joseph Irungu alias Jowie are charged with the murder of Monica Kimani .

The two were remanded for a month before the court released Maribe on bail but denied Jowie’s bail application.

During all court sessions, Itumbi was always in court and would sometimes write how he had visited the journalist at Lang’ata Women Prison.

Itumbi has since become a subject of discussion online with many encouraging a relationship between him and Jacque.
