Mbugua kicked out of matrimonial home, promises bruising legal battle. Exactly one year after the burial of former mau mau freedom fighter Wambui Otieno – Mbugua, her youthful husband Peter Mbugua, now says he has been declared persona non grata by his step sons and daughters in all the matrimonial homes he shared with Wambui.
The former stone mason who raised eyebrows and caused untold laughter when he married the then 67 year old Wambui Otieno nine years ago, by the way, he was 29 then, is promising the mother of all matrimonial battles after he realized he was excluded from Wambui’s will that he himself had helped write.
According to the will seen by the Sunday Nation, Wambui wanted Mbugua to own at least one car to enable him “move around in his day-to-day endeavours”.
In the detailed will signed on June 19, 2011, Wambui distributed all her movable and immovable property and cash held in bank among her 10 children and eight grand children
Wambui directed that expenses for her burial were to be paid out of her estate
Here is the classic story of from rags to riches and back to rags.
Peter Mbugua’s story, particularly after the death of his wife Wambui Otieno, is indeed tragic and filled with personal and financial upheaval. Wambui Otieno, a strong and independent figure in Kenyan society, left behind a complicated legacy after her passing. The dynamics between her children and Peter Mbugua after her death added another layer of complexity to an already tumultuous life.
After the death of Wambui Otieno, Peter Mbugua found himself embroiled in a bitter dispute with her children. Despite having been her husband, Mbugua was unceremoniously kicked out of their matrimonial home by Wambui’s children. This situation is a reflection of the deep-seated tensions that often arise in families when a prominent matriarch or patriarch passes away, leaving behind not only assets but also unresolved emotional and financial issues.
Peter Mbugua had already experienced significant financial instability after a period of wealth, and this further displacement only worsened his circumstances. Being ejected from the home he once shared with Wambui Otieno marked the end of his relationship with a life of comfort and security. The public nature of the dispute and his fall from grace made his situation even more poignant for many observers.
Mbugua’s story stands as a reminder of how complex inheritance matters can be, especially in cases where there are children involved, and how financial and emotional turbulence can affect one’s life after the death of a spouse. His experience underscores the fragile nature of both wealth and relationships, especially when the dynamics of family, property, and legacy come into play.
Rev 21:4 “He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.”
