In a social media post on Friday, Sonko released phone call recordings with Conjestina’s family to shed light on the situation, asserting that she left his team due to a misunderstanding.
According to Sonko, the rift began when he couldn’t secure a plane ticket for Conjestina from Mombasa to Nairobi, resulting in her taking a bus while he flew. The former boxer allegedly expressed displeasure upon being picked up from the bus stop, insisting on returning home to Siaya.
Sonko defended himself, citing his commitment to court obligations and emphasizing that Conjestina’s family hindered his efforts. He disclosed opposition to the family’s decision to recall her from his care, arguing that they were ill-prepared to oversee her rehabilitation adequately.
