Nairobi man commits suicide after suspecting wife of cheating

A 43-year-old man in Pipeline, Nairobi, on Sunday morning committed suicide after suspecting his wife of cheating on him.

Nicholas Wambua, who fended for his family by hawking second-hand clothes in the area, took poison due to suspicions of his wife engaging in extramarital affairs in their marital home.

Wambua’s in-law, Tabitha Bernard, recalled their last conversation with the deceased which she described as a “disturbing” one.

“He told me he was going away and asked me to tell Mama Sharon to take care of his kids for him,” narrated Tabitha.

Wambua’s in-law, who also happens to be the caretaker of the building in which the deceased and his family stayed, confirmed the reasons for his suicide.

“He told me my sister was bringing and sleeping with a number of men at their home. This hurt me a lot but we never got the chance to speak of it again,” recalled the caretaker.

Wambua’s body has been transferred to City Mortuary.
