Confirming the incident to Channel 14 News via phone, Kauwi Location Chief Thomas Munyao expressed sorrow over the tragedy and emphasized the need for counseling in marriages to help resolve conflicts before they turn fatal.
“This is a painful reminder of the importance of seeking help and guidance in family disputes instead of resorting to violence,” Chief Munyao stated.
