Kenyans, the man stabbed his wife in front of their children at Subuku village in Nyandarua North Sub County, Kenya, killing her on the spot.
After killing her, the father of eight then sent three of his children to report him to the area Assistant Chief Mary Kahiri.
“The three children came to my home and told me that their father had sent them to bring the report that he had killed their mother. I called a neighbour to accompany me and after rushing to their home we found the woman’s body lying in a pool of blood, while that of the man was hanging from a rooftop,”Ms Kahiri was quoted by the Nation.
