Few weeks after the story of Jackline Mwende who was allegedly attacked by her husband for not bearing her husband a child went viral, another woman from Kitui has come out to narrate her horrifying ordeal in the hands of her husband.
35-year old Ann Mwangangi from Muthaiga village near Mwingi town says she has been living a lie in an abusive relationship for a long time enduring the ups of a spoilt marriage.
Ann said that her husband, Julius Mwangangi Syengo, aged 41 had physically assaulted her on a number of occasions to the extent of stabbing her with a knife. The poor woman further confessed to have narrowly escaped death on three different ordeals.
Stories of hostility in marriages are becoming rampant in the county as it now becomes clear that most women are often exposed to unfriendly marriage environment but choose to swallow the bitter pills until everything is blown out of proportion and attracts the attention of the world as was the case with Jackline Mwende.
Mwende's story who was brutally battered in a horrifying incident that saw her hands chopped off by her 'inhumane' husband for failing to bring forth a child for seven years has literally opened a Pandora’s Box.
