On Friday, June 18, Ms Karua, now 63 years old, made a post with her son Dan at the Judiciary’s thanksgiving luncheon for newly appointed Chief Justice Martha Koome, which was held yesterday.
Curious internet users noticed that Martha Karua’s teenage son looked more like Father Dominic Wamugunda, the University of Nairobi’s Dean of Students and Sociology Lecturer.
Karua made headlines on December 6, 2003, when she and Dominic Wamugunda were carjacked and robbed late at night in Wamugunda’s car on their way to Karua’s residence.
Karua, who was then the Gichugu MP, maintained that she was under no responsibility to explain why she was in Wamugunda’s car or what she was doing at the time of the carjacking when questioned by her fellow MPs in the parliament.
A photo of Karua’s son Dan, as well as a photo of Father Wamugunda, is shown below.
