28-Year-Old Man Arrested for Poisoning Wife, Her Friend in Dandora, Nairobi

Police in Nairobi are holding a 28-year-old man who allegedly poisoned his wife and her friend, leading to their deaths.

Sebastian Kamande is said to have served poisoned food to his wife Rahab Gathoni and her friend Abigael Gathoni, who had paid them a visit at their home in Nairobi’s Dandora estate on March 29th.

He then left their lifeless bodies sprawled on the floor and went into hiding in Dandora, where he escaped a police dragnet before fleeing to Embu.

He was finally arrested on Saturday along the Embu-Nairobi highway as he traveled back to the city in a bid to outfox detectives investigating the murder.

Preliminary investigations indicate that Kamande and his wife were having marital problems and efforts by the man’s parents to assist them to rekindle their once blissful union had hit a dead end. 

It emerged that the couple had been invited by the man’s parents to Kakuzi, Murang’a County last weekend in a bid to salvage their union.

When they returned to their home in Dandora, Kamande’s wife who had since received a visitor declined to cook, prompting the disgruntled husband to venture into the kitchen. 

“It is during the preparation of the evening meal of rice and stew that the suspect laced it with an unspecified poison and served the two women before fleeing,” DCI noted.

The suspect is being held at Dandora police station awaiting arraignment on Monday to face murder charges.

    What happened to the age of reason when marital disputes were settled using family and community elders? We have become like fish out of water.

    • @ Mlanndizi, marriage…
      @ Mlanndizi, marriage counselors,and other professional advisors come with a price. They are the ones who replaces wazee,and family counsel Besides that, people dont want to meddles in affair of others…
      Yes, times have really changed…
      Marriage was a respected institution,and you got the blessings of the whole community.Nowdays,its actually upto you to succeed or fail. THere are so many life style options.Marriage is just one of them,and its not for every one.

    • The problem is simply that…
      The problem is simply that the elders no longer exist. They have been replaced by senseless youths who follow the instructions of DP Ruto, another senseless goat who can’t save himself from the ICC. Consequently Ruto wants the whole country to go in flames before he occupies his cell room at The Hague.

      So everything in the society is a replica of Ruto’s generation death of rustlers who seeks advise from a mad chief hustler DP ruto. Ruto told boda boda who had raped a female to storm the place station to get their confiscated bikes.

      Ruto’s believe is that women has no place in society. 2007 Kiambaa Massacre organized by Ruto to kill women and child is a clear example of how far Ruto will go to exterminate women.

      When you see a guy like this one poisoning a woman, it’s simply because he is a good disciple of Apostle the DP ruto. We are now beginning to see the bitter fruits of what Ruto has been sowing across the country.

      Ruto is quite excited unhinged as he sense political defeat in August 2022. Anyone can see Ruto’s rantings as he attacks Raila, Uhuru, our National mother Mama Ngina Kenyatta, etc. I really think Ruto have literally flipped a switch in his head and have gone insane.

      The stuff you see Ruto doing is very similar with what Hitler of Germany did in 1940s before he killed 6 million Jews. Someone need to closely watch Ruto and those crazy folks surrounding him.

      Lots of Murang’a men have Issues; they have Mental problems. I know one like that. When he gets Upset: Ni MATUSI tu. Bibi akitumia Wazazi au Ndugu (Ndung’u) zake Pesa: Anaruka akili. Also: Blame it on those People who say “GOD hates Divorce” but they themselves Don’t even know GOD for Real “And why and how He (GOD) hates DIVORCE. They just speak Scripture for the 10% Giving (they Love to Receive).

      ‘Cook for her husband’ wacha iyo culture ya kizamani. Kwani hawezi kujipikia? Bibi au bwana au mtoto apike akitaka not because its an expectation au ni kazi yake! Rime to change ya thinking folks! I love cooking my own food hata saa ingine nafukuza bibi kutoka jikoni. By the way I have a big restaurant in cheptiret. Karibu and I am the master chef with 12 male cooks ( all of them).

      Wewe akili yako ndogo kuliko ya inzi.How can you kill two innocent human beings as a punishment of one declining to cook for you?

      @crypto – you must really be an idiot! You ought to be ashamed of your damn self blaming a woman who has been poisoned to death. Why don’t you marry your mother to cook for you dummy!?

    Kamande,a VD is a true Raila follower.Muuaji Raila and jambazi Kibaki imported contaminated/poisonous/cancer maize from SA when Kenya faced food shortages in 2008/09.It is still killing thousands of Kenyans to date.

  5. Anyone who condones such…
    Anyone who condones such evil is a muderer and has an evil mind. No one deserves to die because of anything, especially refusing to cook. Why didn’t this guy walk away? He should rot in jail.

  6. Hate them or love them,…
    Hate them or love them, women will always be part of us men. It one thing we can’t do without.
    But no matter what, killing women won’t solve nothing. It’s painful when you think you love someone and they let you down, please take the high road, walk.
    It’s takes a real strong man to walk.
    It’s painful but worth your own peace.

    • @Kora Kanini, you are right…
      @Kora Kanini, you are right that women are one thing we cannot do without, meaning that we cannot do without mothers,much like we cannot do without fathers,procreation wise…
      Definitely killing someone you profess to love does not make sense.
      As, I always say, if you love yourself, you would not do something that would harm you. When you sense things are going down,jump ship before it sinks.
      As for having relationships with women, its a choice. As much as one feels that they have to, you can live very fulfilled life without female “entanglement”. You make the choice.

  7. Women have to understand…
    Women have to understand that men do not do well with rejection na kwanza humiliation in-front of a outsiders. If you love your life, learn to deescalate and run ??‍♀️ when you still got legs. At the moment of weakness, me do damn and dangerous, senseless stuff in anger.

      Men want respect. In a feminization world full of woke media women assume it is ok to go with the flow. No it ain’t. I love Indian and Arab women. They still show respect even in the West.

    Coward you are too weak to accept she does not want you. You decide to kill her instead. Worthless animal.
