Nairobi, June 16- Digital content creator Daddie Marto’s wife, Koku Lwanga, has publicly confirmed the end of their marriage, citing infidelity, emotional and physical abuse.
In a series of emotional Instagram stories, Koku revealed she had discovered Marto with another woman in what he referred to as his “office”—a separate two-bedroom apartment located within the same compound as their Nairobi home.
“I didn’t deserve that,” she wrote. “You brought another woman into your so-called office, right in my presence. Even after we separated, you rented another unit in the same compound.”
Koku alleged that when she confronted Marto about the affair, the situation turned violent. “I didn’t deserve to be punched and kicked in the head, neck, and back while curled up in a fetal position—just because I came to confront you and your mistress,” she said. “You said you don’t owe me anything, but you owe me dignity, respect, and basic decency, especially during this sensitive time.”
She went on to say the other woman had been hidden inside the apartment when she arrived, and that the confrontation escalated enough to wake neighbors. “I hope you’re not hurting her too. Stop sneaking her in during the night and locking her inside because your wife is outside screaming,” she added. “She knew you were married—let her take responsibility for her choices.”
Koku also posted past photos of her and Daddie Marto, expressing grief over the breakdown of their long-term relationship. “Tonight’s drama wasn’t out of anger, it was pain. Pain from realizing I’ve been sharing my life with someone who became an enemy to my heart and soul,” she said.
She shared videos from the confrontation, including one showing Marto exiting a black van, implying the woman he was with was discreetly escorted out afterward. “Can’t imagine being hidden and snuck out like that. Baby girl, don’t allow yourself to be treated like a secret,” she commented.
In another post, Koku displayed bruises on her back and head, claiming they were a result of the alleged assault. “Knots on my scalp, back, and neck. I should have just stayed home. All I got were kicks and blows,” she wrote.
Koku further disclosed that police got involved after Marto filed a complaint accusing her of causing a disturbance at his residence. “You’ve reported me for creating chaos at your place, saying I insulted you—knowing full well I was addressing her,” she noted.
Through a stream of heartfelt messages, Koku reflected on their over-10-year relationship, expressing feelings of betrayal and heartbreak. “We built a life together… and now, this,” she said.
As of now, Daddie Marto has not issued a public response to the allegations.
