Jenifer Khainza Atwoli, the first wife of the prominent figure, has skillfully evaded the public eye, seldom making appearances alongside her husband. In stark contrast to his second wife, Roselinda Simiyu, who made a vociferous uproar when she was ousted from their Kileleshwa residence, Atwoli affirms that his first wife, Jenifer Khainza Atwoli, “upholds the sanctity of our marriage.”
Roselinda Simiyu
Roselinda Simiyu, on the other hand, undeniably represents Atwoli’s most turbulent and dramatic relationship thus far. In 1996, the Cotu leader wed Roselinda under false pretenses about his divorce. At the time, she was 30 years old, while Atwoli, then 47, had fathered two of her three children.
During an interview on Citizen TV’s JKL Show, Atwoli disclosed that he and his wife had divorced following her decision to venture into electoral politics against his wishes. Roselinda, who ran for the Webuye West parliamentary seat unsuccessfully, stated that while she held no objections to Atwoli taking another wife, the man she once knew was no longer the same.
Mary Kilobi
Mary Kilobi, a Swahili news anchor, made headlines when she tied the knot with Atwoli despite their significant age difference of 35 years. Despite this, the couple appears to have found happiness together. Atwoli enjoys quality time with his wife at their enviable residence in Kajiado. Their marriage took place in 2018.
Atwoli revealed that the political aspirations of his third wife were partly influenced by the experiences with his second wife.
He’s alleged to marrying fourth wife
Allegations of Atwoli entering into a fourth marriage surfaced when Jamila Mbugua sparked controversy on Twitter. Mbugua claimed that the Cotu secretary general had wed a 23-year-old Muslim woman from the coastal region. However, for the time being, we must treat this assertion as a mere rumor, pending further verification.
