Jealousy and anger: Why I killed Ivy Wangeci, Naftali Kinuthia tells court

The prime suspect in the murder of a Moi University medical student three years ago has confessed to the crime, telling a court that jealousy took over him when he saw her hugging another man.

Naftali Kinuthia confessed before the High Court in Eldoret, Nakuru County, to hacking his then-girlfriend Ivy Wangeci, 22, using an ax, saying it was due to anger.

In the attack on the morning of April 9, 2019, the man struck Wangeci twice on the head outside Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital (MTRH).
