A 34-year-old nurse is alleged to have stabbed her 21-year-old lover to death in what police claim is love turned sour.

The young man, a former Alliance High School student, was waiting to join Kenyatta University where he had been admitted for a course in architecture.

He had scored straight As in KCSE
examinations, which he sat in 2011.
Ms Leah Muthoni — who is now in police custody after being charged in court on Monday — is suspected to have stabbed Adrian Ochingwa Kabala five times in the neck.

ILL-FATED NIGHT

She is also said to have stabbed another woman she found in Kabala’s company during the shocking incident that occurred
around 3am on Sunday in Kinoo area near Nairobi.

The second woman, identified as
Sara, was treated at the Kikuyu Hospital and discharged. Kabala was living with Ms Muthoni, a
nurse at the Kikuyu Hospital, in an
apartment only a stone’s throw away from his parents’ house.

On the ill-fated night, Kabala was in Sara’s company in another apartment just two doors from Ms Muthoni’s. It is there that police allege Muthoni found Kabala and
stabbed him five times. Sara tried to flee but she, too, was stabbed on the right hand.

Witnesses said Kabala collapsed and died from the wounds he sustained. A caretaker at the apartment, Mr Charles
Kimani, said he heard a loud wail coming from the house and shortly thereafter, saw Muthoni running after Sara.

She failed to catch up with her and gave up the chase. When Mr Kimani established that Kabala
was dead, he decided to take Sara to hospital.

Meanwhile, Ms Muthoni called Kabala’s cousin, Leonne, to inform him about what had just happened.
“The call came at a strange time, just two minutes after 3am,” Leonne told the Nation at the city mortuary where Kabala’s body
was awaiting a post-mortem examination yesterday.

“Before I could say anything, she added: ‘It was either I die or he dies’”.

Kabala’s father, Mr Peter Kabala, received the news from his security man, who woke him up to tell him what had just happened.

Earlier, Muthoni had tried to reach him three times — probably to tell him what had happened — but he never picked his phone because he was asleep.

“He was my first child,” a shocked Mr Kabala said at his home in Kinoo yesterday.

“His future looked very bright”.
He described Kabala as a very social
person, a fast learner and a man of many talents.

He also admitted that the younger Kabala was seeing many women. He was also aware that the younger Kabala and his lover had quarrelled over his promiscuity.

I DISAPPROVED

“At his age, boys tend to have many women in their lives. The hormones are very active, but I had warned him,” he said.

Mr Kabala had tried to discourage his son from entering into relationships with older women, but his advice had fallen on deaf
ears.

Ms Muthoni is 34 and Sara is said to be in her late 20s or early 30s, meaning, both were older than Kabala.

“I disapproved of their relationship (with Muthoni) because I thought it wasn’t the right thing and even talked to Leah to end it, but she was unwilling,” he said.

A third woman in Kabala’s love life is a Maritime Engineering student at Jomo Kenyatta University. She claimed that Kabala had been her boyfriend of four
years. They had met as secondary school students during the national drama festivals in Mombasa in 2009 and the two have a
one-year-old son. She said she broke off the relationship only
three weeks after their child was born because she discovered that he was also seeing Muthoni.

When police visited the crime scene on Sunday, they found Muthoni in her apartment and arrested her. She was charged in court on Monday, but police asked for more time to conclude
investigations.

“She is currently being held
at the Kabete Police Station,” Dagoretti OCPD Mathews Gwiyo said.
