Hata!! Si hivyo ndugu yangu @Vin. Sina uhusiano wowote na Bibi huyu. Si wa damu wala wa kimapenzi na sina nia yoyote ila kujaribu kuangalia swala hili kutoka upande mwingine.

She does not look like the type to shout from the rooftops like the Kirima children. I wonder how many people have dealt with old people as they drift into senility. It is not an often talked about issue but it can be very traumatic for close family members.

Someone you once knew and respected starts to lose their mind and they drift in and out of moments of lucid clear thinking that you have come to know and moments of total idiocy or childlike behaviour that totally throws you off. You get confused as you try to adjust yourself to treating them alternately as adults and as children. It is not a disease that can be cured like the Kirima children would want us to believe. There is no medical treatment. Wazungus, being who they are will of course give fancy names to these conditions like dementia, Alzheimers etc and there are billions worth of medications and specialists who claim to treat them. Simple people just know it as kuzeeka and there is no better care than an understanding, loving family to take care of someone during these days. If I was in such a condition I would rather have my wife of 43 years with me than my own grown up children who I raised, who moved away and now have their own families to look after.

Scenes behind the video... What you saw was kirima denouncing his wife. Behind the scenes it was said that GK had draw a new will which was commissioned at british high commission. He said that he was revoking his first will - his exact words. He also said that he was married under kikuyu custom, but his wife was adultrous and was seeking divorce under kikuyu custom. Under kenyan law a will can be commissioned before a british high commissioner. When making a new will one has to expressly state that they are revoking previous wills, adultery is a ground for divorce... Looks like some lawyers are hard at work. Clearly he was coached on what exactly to say infront of the camera. Poor GK was not flown to the UK merely for sightseeing!

@kusadikika has articulated very clearly the frustrations of dealing with a senile relative. it is extremely challenging. This kirima story is not clear cut case, both sides have valid arguments.

Terresia in trouble now.Forceful eviction kenyan style.

Is that how Gikuyu traditional divorce are carried out?
Didn't know until I watched last evening on Citizen prime.
Where was the Teresia and her sumptuous daughter by the way?
