Later last year Statehouse Digital
Director cum former blogger Dennis Itumbi made headlines in the entire
blogosphere and social media after he decided to surprise Citizen News Anchor
Jacque Maribe with a birthday cake. Rumors have been vastly spreading that
indeed the two are in a serious relationship but during a media interview
Dennis claimed that he doesn’t believe in Marriage and is not planning to
settle down for one any time soon.
Well this has brought a lot of
controversy as the two have been spotted in various occasions getting romantic
including a photo that made circles online of the two kissing was evident
enough that the two had something. Dennis rubbished the rumors and claims that
they are just close friends.
“There’s nothing of a romantic nature going on between Jackie Maribe and I. She is simply a very good friend of mine. We met a while back when she was in media circles and we connected. That’s it. I delivered a cake to a friend, at her place of work, on her birthday. There’s nothing more to it. She’s a really great friend though.” Itumbi said.
The 34 year old former blogger also
disclosed that he doesn’t believe in the institution of marriage and that’s why
he has not settled down for marriage despite his age.
“I don’t believe the institution of marriage is one that is compulsory to all. I don’t think it works. Life is so structured. And I hate it. Get born, go to school, find a job, get married, have kids, retire, and the cycle starts again with the kids. It’s terrible. I’m determined to interfere with that structure.” He added.
So if Jacque thinks that Itumbi will
make a move and propose to her for marriage, this will not happen any-time
soon. But you never know it may be a big surprise awaiting. Only time can tell
