A man in Kijabe village hanged himself on Thursday after a domestic disagreement with his wife.
The father of three took his life outside the family house after his wife allegedly refused to open the door for him.
It is said that the deceased returned home drunk after a drinking spree with friends.
According to Samuel Njung’e, a neighbour, the couple has often differed over the deceased's drinking habits.
Njung’e said the woman has always complained about her husband's failure to provide for the family because he is ever drunk.
“The man would spend all his salary on liquor and would return home late in the evening drunk and penniless,” he said.
Police have confirmed the incident and said the woman has recorded a statement as investigations continue.
