Ben Githae, a gospel singer, describes how a side chick “detained” him for two days

Renowned gospel singer Ben Githae recently shared shocking details about his past, recounting instances of cheating and heartbreak that had a lasting impact on his life.

In an interview with Billy Miya, the Tano Tena hitmaker revealed deeply personal stories that he believes will stay with him forever.

Recalling a particularly painful moment from his past, Githae confessed to cheating on his wife just months after their marriage.

“When I was still a gospel artiste, I visited another girl yet I was married. She put all my clothes in water. She said I would not leave the house yet I was newly married. I spent two days in her house since it was during the cold season and clothes could not dry quickly. My wife caught me cheating. Nilikamatwa vibaya,” he recounted.

The singer didn’t stop there, also sharing a heartbreaking memory from his youth involving a Christmas date gone awry.

“When I was a young man during one Christmas Day, I was learning how to date girls back home. One girl called Shiko came from a rich family and I was from a humble background. She told me she would visit me for Christmas. I even bought a new T-shirt for the date,” he explained.

Githae said he walked to the meeting point only to see his girl riding in a car with another man.

“There were no phones, so I went to the meeting point which we had agreed on. Sadly, I saw the girl being driven in a car by a young man from a rich family. She looked at me and ignored me,” he lamented.

Githae described deceiving his mother and feeling troubled and anxious the next day.

“Feeling disappointed, I returned home. My mother inquired why I had come back, and I claimed I had forgotten something in my small room. I went inside and slept, only to wake up on Boxing Day.”

These experiences left Githae deeply scarred, leading him to admit that he struggles to fully trust or love any woman.

“That changed my perception of dating. Until today, I can’t love 100%. I don’t love any woman with all my heart. I think I got blood pressure,” he confessed.

In 2019, Ben Githae admitted to infidelity, revealing that he had cheated on his wife of 18 years and fathered three children outside of their marriage, including twins.
