Jacque Maribe Lands Communications Job In CS Kuria’s Office
Former Citizen TV news presenter Jacque Maribe has been appointed as the Head of Communications at the Public Service Ministry, following her recent acquittal of a murder charge.
Cabinet Secretary Moses Kuria made the announcement on Sunday days after Maribe was cleared in the murder of businesswoman Monica Kimani.
Maribe, who had been charged alongside her former fiancé Joseph Irungu, alias Jowie, was acquitted of the murder of the businesswoman who was killed at her apartment in Nairobi’s Kilimani area in 2018.
Justice Grace Nzioka ruled that there was insufficient evidence linking Maribe to the murder, emphasizing that the prosecution had failed to provide substantial proof of her involvement in the crime.
While acknowledging Maribe’s culpability for providing false information to the police during the murder probe, Nzioka emphasized that she was not appropriately charged before the court.
Maribe’s ex-fiancé, Jowie, was found guilty of Monica’s murder and is awaiting sentencing on March 13.
