This past weekend, Media personality Trevor Ombija infused a moment of levity into the somber atmosphere of Mashirima Kapombe’s mother’s burial ceremony with his playful remarks about their relationship.
As the ceremony unfolded, Trevor took a moment to express his gratitude for Mashirima’s generous spirit, reflecting on the unique connection they have cultivated over the years.
During the ceremony, Trevor expressed his admiration for Mashirima’s kind heart, reflecting on their special connection. Yet, it was his humorous twist that truly captivated the crowd.
With a playful grin, he suggested he wouldn’t mind being related to Mashirima in a different sense, cheekily noting that while he currently has one wife, he would be open to more if the need arose.
“Mimi na Mashirima tuna uhusiano wa karibu sana,” he began.
“In 2019, yeye ndio mtu wa kwanza nilifanya naye kazi katika Monday Townhall. Alikuwa mkarimu, hakunionyesha madharau wala ubabe. Nampenda sana.”(Mashirima and I have a very close relationship. In 2019, she was the first person I worked with on Monday Townhall. She was kind, never showed me disdain or arrogance. I love her dearly)
His playful banter continued: “Ni uhusiano wa kikazi. Lakini hata hiyo ingine ni sawa. Nawategemea mniombee... kwa sasa nina bibi mmoja, sasa nawategemea.” (It’s a working relationship. But even that other kind is fine. I rely on you to pray for me... for now, I have one wife, but I’m open to more)
Laughter erupted from the audience, a refreshing respite in a time of sorrow. Trevor himself is a father of one who has kept his relationship away from the public eye while Mashirima remains a devoted mother to her son, choosing to keep the identity of his father shrouded in discretion.
