A 56-year-old man from Kiharo village in Gatumbiro, Nyandarua county, on Wednesday killed his wife and attempted to take his own life. “After a brief moment we heard a distress call, and we saw Njogu running from the compound. Muriithi said a week ago, neighbours rescued Waitherero from Njogu, who had gone to attack her demanding that she goes back to her matrimonial home. Neighbours and family members said the main problem was a land dispute as Njogu wanted to sell it but his siblings and wife opposed. He said Njogu wanted to take his portion of the land, which he inherited from his parents.
