Wooow. very interesting. No wonder this page is called the women page in kenyan daily nation. Soon it will be breeding from the obituary .
As much as we may cerebrate on this, it may lead to some women killing others to get their spouses. Yes it may happen and it has been happening even to men. Good luck ladies. I hope the ladies also know people can die from accidents even when they have communicable diseases like STI, and cervical cancers.
