Slain Dutch national Tob Cohen’s estranged wife Sarah Wairimu on Tuesday vowed to defend herself against accusations that she murdered her husband.
Wairimu, who is the prime suspect in the killing, spoke at the burial of the late tycoon which was held at the Jewish cemetery along Wangari Maathai Road in Nairobi on Tuesday.
The widow, who was escorted to the ceremony by prison wardens, told Cohen’s killers that their days are numbered even as she appeared to suggest that they were in attendance.
“I am not scared of anybody. One thing that Cohen taught me is to take no for an answer…so even in this, I am going to fight,” she said.
She continued: “But even as we stand here, many of the ones responsible for Tob’s death here in sheep skin believe you me your days are also numbered.”
Holding a white handkerchief, Ms. Wairimu was seen wiping her tears as priests performed final rituals in line with the Jewish traditions. The casket carrying Cohen’s remains was lowered into the grave a few minutes to 5 pm.
Some of the prominent personalities who were present include former government spokesperson Muthui Kariuki, President Kenyatta’s cousins Ngengi Muigai and Captain Kung’u Muigai as wells as lawyers Cliff Ombeta and Philip Murgor.
Cohen, who had lived in Kenya for 32 years, was found dead on September 13th and his body dumped inside an underground water tank at his home in Kitisuru, Nairobi. The 71-year-old tours and travel tycoon had been missing since July 19th.
Why do caught murderers in…
Why do caught murderers in Kenya have more courage than in any other country in the World?. Possible reason is because they know they will have the last laugh. This killer has the audacity to come to the victim’s funeral to mock Cohen’s grieving family and she is allowed to? Vigilantism is never good but it is possible to see why some people would take law in their own hands especially in cases where murderers are set free to go kill more people
Aii Wairimu! your husband…
Aii Wairimu! your husband was brutally murdered & later buried in your compound & you knew nothing about it? Pleez! We know about women from Central inborn gift & rest assured that even if you were to inherit all your husband’s wealth, you’ll never have peace! Thii ukiumaga muragani uyu!

You spoke the truth Mr. Andrew. I hail from Siaya and I am a Luo. I admire people from Central Part of Kenya because they are very industrious compared to people from other parts of Kenya but when it comes to serial killings Central Kenya women ranks number one in the World for killing their husbands. My family is a victim to their acts
Maybe non Central women who…
Maybe non Central women who kill do not make any headline because they marry poor men- those deaths do not make news, non issue = who gives damn, hiyo tuu. And what was your family doing in Central, stay in your poor Siaya and leave us Central people to kill, steal and engage in the all the other stereotypes and generalizations you want to peddle. For a Dr. like you to be so petty and use stupid statistics aka in the world is equally ignorant but hey do not let me stop you and your fellow mwakilishi commentators from demonizing a whole community because of a few and for someone who lives in US – I guess you are a ghetto hod rum , good for nothing N****. Shame on you, you probably face that kind of stereotype here in the US and here you are doing the same to a different group of people .SAD!
