ERIC OMONDI IN BABY DADDY DRAMA!
Written by Elizabeth Nyambura on November 4, 2021
Eric Omondi, an Award-winning Comedian who has been flying high the Kenyan flag as far as the Comedy industry is concerned. He commonly refers himself as “The President of Comedy Africa”
Lately, he went to social media and posted a photo of a pregnant woman; Miss P, on his Instagram page suggesting that he is super excited to be a father for the second time.
“I met this beautiful woman five months ago in (at) an event I was hosting. Whatever happened (has) happened and I promised her I would take every responsibility. Children are a blessing from God,” wrote Omondi.
He confirmed that the pregnancy was 5 months old and, in an interview, he said that he would be super excited if it was a baby girl because he finds them adorable and beautiful.
Jacque Maribe, a popular TV journalist, has appeared to brush off the suggestion that Eric Omondi is a responsible father. Saying that as a single mum she has done it on her own.
The parental drama between comedian Eric Omondi and Jacque Maribe has taken a fresh twist amid fresh allegations touching on the paternity of the son. In a phone call interview at Radio Jambo, Eric accused Maribe of ducking a paternity test that will determine the biological father of the baby.
He also suggested that he only ‘once’ slept with her around and that they had protected sex!
“So we met at Radio Africa in 2012,” explained Omondi in a lengthy statement on Instagram.
“I was working at Radio Jambo and Jacque was at Kiss TV. One random night after a Radio Africa Staff Party and after a few bottles of whiskey and wine glasses, Jacque and I happened.”
“It was really a one-night thing because she was dating KTN’s Sam Ogina at the time. We used Protection!!! After two Months, Jacque tells me she’s pregnant!!! I immediately asked her how since we used Protection? She then tells me, “It doesn’t matter; the mother always knows who the Father is and that I am the Father!!! During the entire Pregnancy, nothing happened, and we barely saw each other.” He added.
Four months after the baby was born, Omondi says Maribe asked if he would step up to the responsibility of being a father, but he asked for a DNA test first.
“Roughly 4 months after the baby was born, Jacque called me and asked me if I would help or be part of the baby’s life. I asked her for a DNA test so that I could comfortably be part of the baby’s life and SUPPORT fully. She got very offended and refused my request. For 7 seven years I have begged Jacque to allow us to have a DNA test, and she has CONTINUALLY refused!!!,” he added.
Omondi’s statement comes days after she accused him of not taking up his responsibilities as a father and he has argued out that he is not sure if he was the biological father of the seven years old son. Arguing that the TV girl was dating Ogina when he had a fling with her
“For seven years I have begged Jacque to allow us to have a DNA test, and she has continually refused,” he added.
The two have exposed themselves in public, accusing Omondi of being a deadbeat dad and the comedian’s dismissal that he has continuously demanded a paternity test seven years ago but denied the same.
Eric clearly speaks of his disappointment towards Jackie for public scrutiny of exposing the baby on social media and confirms that the picture of the baby bump was fake to hype a music video.
He also says that he really wants to fully be in the child’s life as long as the DNA Test is provided.
