The media is ablaze today after the publishing of a story about a woman who conspired to eliminate her husband, apparently because he engaged an extra-marital affair (or two)...and because he neglected his fatherly (and husband) duties.While not in any way condoning or trivializing the matter, these events happen all the time.These events would even be more commonplace if some people had the resources and wherewithal to accomplish them..if the comments on a popular morning radio talk show are anything to go by.
What spikes most peoples curiosity, however, is why the "aggrieved" party never used one of the many avenues made available to couples experiencing marital difficulties.These are too numerous to list here. Further, for a person who was capable of parting with not less than 200,000 shillings for the act, it further deepens the mystery.
For this woman, however, it is too late. Her apparent lack of emotional intelligence and inability to think rationally ultimately got the best of her.She will spend the rest of her life, not contributing positively to the lives of her two children, but languishing in one of Kenya's infamous prisons.
Certainly this is a turn-up for the books of our security agencies.
