Corazon Kwamboka’s father: My daughter’s fame tore the family apart

A man claiming to be socialite Corazon Kwamboka’s father has alleged that his daughter's fame tore his family apart. Osmond Sambu Okero told The Nairobian in a past interview that his family abandoned him in Siaya town after he exhausted his savings and resources to pay school fees and other bills.

“Trouble began when my daughter started being featured in newspapers and branded a socialite. I had 10 children, unfortunately, two died, and Kwamboka is the first born. She was born and bred in Kibos, Kisumu. I took her to Lwak Secondary School in Siaya. She was a very bright girl; who passed all her exams and was admitted to study law at the University of Nairobi,” says Sambu,  an accountant turned teacher.
