Mohamed Wardi Hassan in his social media page called on netizens to stop criticizing him over his poor command in English but to accept the fact that he once dated the flamboyant TV girl.

"Don't judge my English before you know my personality becoz i know however it's pathetic but message is clearly understood. Jackie was mine once upon a time before we part ways kelele ya chura pelekeni lake victoria," he posted

In yet another tweet, Wardi puts off his critics saying they equally have poor mastery of the queen's language just like him daring them to forward their academic testimonials to the teachers' employer Teachers Service Commission (TSC) to be considered for teaching slots.

"Some actors criticized my grammar becoz i disclosed long gone relationship with Jacque Maribe, so if in case we have we have English teachers on twitter plz present your testimonial to TSC and secure position in teaching," Wardi posted in a separate tweet.
