Police in Nakuru are looking for a woman who allegedly burnt her husband after the couple disagreed over a phone call the woman received from a pastor Sunday night.
The victim, Fred Ochieng, says besides the controversial phone call, the two also disagreed over the man’s latest move to seek employment in Kisumu.
Mr Ochieng, 23, has been hospitalised at the Nairobi Women’s Hospital, Nakuru branch, after sustaining 37 % physical burns on his head, stomach, thighs, hands and abdomen.
Mr Ochieng says he was watching television at his brother’s house in Milimani estate Tuesday when his wife poured hot oil on him.
According to Mr Ochieng, he was accompanied by his wife to his brother’s place in Nakuru after the former got an invitation to attend a job interview in Kisumu.
Mr Ochieng says his wife was not impressed by the news.
“It broke her heart,” said Mr Ochieng.
Benson Waganda, the victim’s brother said he received the couple on Sunday and was prepared to accompany Mr Ochieng to Kisumu.
