Mariga has been left angered by controversial blogger Francis Gaitho after mocking his decision to get into politics post-retirement while Vincent Kompany is now the Bayern Munich coach.
Former Harambee Stars and Inter Milan midfielder McDonald Mariga has furiously clapped back at Francis Gaitho after he made an intimidating social media post, mocking his decisions post retirement.
Mariga, who became the first Kenyan footballer to play and win the UEFA Champions League in 2010, joined politics in 2019 to vie for Kibera parliamentary seat after the death of Ken Okoth, to mark the end of his playing career.

Mariga, who happens to be Victor Wanyama’s big brother, also played for the likes of Real Sociedad and Parma, having launched his professional career in Sweden when he moved abroad back in 2005.
His career in politics has not hit the strides he expected yet. He has tried and failed twice to contest for that seat, first on a Jubilee ticket, and then on a UDA one.
Gaitho took to his X (formerly Twitter) account to mock Mariga, posting an image of him contesting for the ball with new Bayern Munich manager Vincent Kompany. Kompany was plying his trade for Manchester City at the time.
Gaitho mocked Mariga’s decision to go into politics, describing him as a “goon” for UDA.
Alongside the image, his post captioned,
“Vincent Kompany of Belgium and McDonald Mariga of Kenya during a past football match between Manchester City and Inter-Milan.
Vincent Kompany is now the Bayern Munich manager and Macdonald Mariga a UDA member and goon based in Kibra.”
This rubbed off Mariga the wrong way, triggering him into responding by quote tweeting it in a very brutal way.
“Stop mentioning my name as if I come from your place you h*e,” Mariga tweeted.
