Renowned Mugithi artist Samidoh Muchoki took to social media to honor his baby mama, Edday Nderitu, on her birthday with a heartfelt and emotional post. The tribute highlighted Edday’s significant role in his life and her exceptional skills as a mother.
Samidoh’s message read: “Celebrating the radiant spirit of the esteemed mother of our progeny on her birthday. Here is to a birthday filled with laughter, shared memories, and enduring camaraderie. Hbd @edday_nderitu.”
The Mugithi star shares a daughter with Edday, whom he often celebrates on his social media accounts. Despite their differences and separation 10 months ago, Samidoh’s affection for his child and respect for Edday’s motherhood remain evident.
Edday Nderitu confirmed their split last year, stating her decision to leave the relationship due to her unwillingness to be part of a polygamous setup. She clarified on her social media: “I am not in a polygamous marriage, as stated; I left the husband to whoever needed him more.”
Samidoh, whose real name is Samuel Muchoki, is a celebrated figure in the Mugithi music scene, a genre that blends traditional Kikuyu music with modern influences. His music career has been marked by numerous hits and a strong fan base, making him one of the most prominent Mugithi artists in Kenya.
Edday Nderitu, on the other hand, has maintained a relatively private life despite her association with a public figure. She is known for her role as a devoted mother and has often been praised for her parenting skills.
The couple’s daughter is frequently featured on Samidoh’s social media, showcasing the strong bond between father and child. This public acknowledgment of his daughter and Edday’s role in her life highlights the importance Samidoh places on family, even amidst personal challenges.
The relationship between Samidoh and Edday has been a subject of public interest, particularly following the announcement of their separation. The couple’s breakup was not without its controversies, especially given the public nature of their relationship and the involvement of a third party. Samidoh has been linked to politician Karen Nyamu, a relationship that added fuel to the already fiery public discourse surrounding his personal life.
Despite the separation, speculation has it that Samidoh’s recent birthday message to Edday signifies a move towards maintaining a respectful and amicable relationship. It underscores the importance of co-parenting and the ability to put personal differences aside for the well-being of their child, a gesture of goodwill that serves as an example for many in similar situations, demonstrating that respect and appreciation can coexist with separation
