Kenyans on twitter have cheered the move by Maribe’s friend to appear in court today during the court session as Maribe and fiancee Joseph Irugu were taking plea over the murder charges of Monica Kimani.
One of her friends who was present during the court session is Kenyan gospel artist Kambua who also happens to be her colleague. Her presence moved a section of Kenyans as they spoke on how this is indeed what true friendship is all about and a bold move.
Even though Maribe’s friends had earlier been criticized for remaining mute ever since her fiancee Joseph Irungu was arrested as first suspect in the murder, today’s appearance in court has proved the critics wrong.
Also present in the court was the Digital Innovations and Diaspora Communications Secretary, Dennis Itumbi who had earlier shared a message of prayer on his twitter page.
“It has always been said and I agree that, ‘The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice’,” “Though it tarries, be sure that Justice will be done my dear friend Jacque Maribe So shall it be done for Monica and Family. So, graciously hear me Lord,” reads tweet

Here are some of Kenyans reactions
@OleItumbi and @Kambua showing their support for Jacque Maribe publicly is brave. It shows Itumbi love for her was true. Kambua can be there for spiritual guidance. Murderer or not, Maribe deserves love & guidance. So did Monica Kimani. There must be justice.
