Friday, June 27, 2025 - Labour and Social Protection Cabinet Secretary, Dr. Alfred Mutua, is entangled in a messy legal tussle with a Dubai-based Kenyan lady, who is accusing him of absconding parental responsibility.
Mutua met the lady, only identified as FMM, at the Dubai
Mall in 2022 and had a fling that resulted in pregnancy.
The lady fell pregnant in 2023 and informed him that he was
the father.
Mutua insisted on a DNA test which confirmed that he was the
child’s biological father.
“The Plaintiff (Mutua) indicated that he would only assume
parental responsibility over the minor subject to a positive DNA test,” she
stated in the court documents.
The test was conducted on December 11th, 2023,
and confirmed on December 26th, 2024.
But even after that, she alleges, the CS refused to support
the child and has continued to dodge responsibility.
She is now demanding Sh. 6,066,680 in backdated support
and full custody.
The court documents detail her demands, including, “I want
either US residency, Canada, Australia or New Zealand, even Europe for me and
my daughter (put we are government workers being sent on a mission). I want
government tenders… I want a blank cheque (I won’t put an insane number)… Can’t
wait any longer. Have no job, no income. Fulus Khalas!”
Her detailed expense sheet, covering the 564 days since the
child’s birth, adds up to over Sh 6 million, including: Sh 3.6 million for
rent, Sh 564,000 for food and toiletries, Sh 69,800 for a three-night
birthday party at Dubai’s Grand Hyatt.
She also wants a new birth certificate bearing Dr. Mutua’s
name, school fees covered, medical support, housing, and more.
However, Mutua accuses her of extortion and is now pushing
for a 50:50 parenting arrangement and says he’s ready to pay for the child’s
medical and upkeep needs within the law.
His legal team has submitted WhatsApp messages allegedly
showing her pushing for foreign travel documents and tenders.
He further alleges that she breached their daughter’s right
to privacy by outing him publicly on Instagram as the father, an act he says
puts the child at risk.
