Radio presenter Nick Odhiambo has responded to claims that he beat up a lady known as Jane Mwai, with whom he has been hooking up with.
Nick accused Jane of blackmailing him using the police, using drugs and flirting with other men in his presence. he further claimed that his relationship with Jane was a mere fling that went on for too wrong.
The response was published by The Standard Newspaper’s The Nairobian on November 4.
Jane Mwai, a mother of one had claimed that Nick first beat her up in 2013. She then claimed that Nick battered her again on October 29 this year. “We were coming from Yetu Festival at Ngong Racecourse. I told him I wanted to greet a friend and when I came back, he told me that I was trying to spite him. He locked me in the car and started beating me till I collapsed. He broke my reading glasses and phone,” she told The Nairobian.
The couple lived together in Nick’s Kiserian home until they separated.
But Nick told The Nairobian that, “I don’t deny that I hit her, but I was pushed to the edge and I really regret this.”
He claims that Jane was using police to blackmail him and “when we met, she confessed that policemen wanted to blackmail me. She then started flirting with other men and smoking weed in my car. That pushed me to the limit and I lost my temper.”
“I have been quiet about this issue but this woman has really been pushing me to the edge. One time a friend showed me nude photos of her that she had shared. She flirts and giggles with men when she is around me. Then another time she started telling me how close she was with a retired footballer to a point she got whores for him. Yet, every time I leave her, she comes looking for me. I’m done,” Nick said.
