Chief Inspector Anne Wanjiru Waiganjo is reported to have collapsed at a colleague’s farewell party at Baita Restaurant in Upperhill, Nairobi on Saturday.

A police report on the incident indicates that Wanjiru was rushed to Nairobi Hospital where she was pronounced dead upon arrival.

“The body is lying at the same facility awaiting to be transferred to Kenyatta University Mortuary,” the report reads in part.

Wanjiru, who was the head of the Karen DCI office, was fighting accusations of bigamy—the offense of marrying someone else while legally married. The offense attracts a prison sentence of up to five years.

She refuted these allegations, saying that the alleged first marriage had never existed. 

The two officers Wanjiru was alleged to be involved with were identified as Inspector David Murimi, and Prison Officer David Mbitu.

    Kenya has become an extremely dangerous country. Hardly any day goes by without kidnapping, violent robbery, hijackings or poisoning. It has now gone to another level with those who are trusted with enforcing law being the one violating it. The fature of Kenya is brink

    How was she maintaining two husbands but then again she was the DCI head of Karen we all know those rich folk will pay any amount to stay out of jail.Kudos to you regular mabibis are busy fighting sluts currently known in modern lingo as slay queens for their husbands and you had two men .Somebody got jealous and decided to act.Nothing worse than a woman scorned or in this case a man

    Pole kwa familia ya Waiganjo,mabwana zake na watoto wake(kama wako).Inawezekana Wanjiru alisukumwa na mujikuno/joto/muruki/heat sana mupaka akasahau kupima BLOOD PRESSURE.Yaweza kuwa ni upungufu wa SODIAMU kwa mwili.

    Matiang'i,you better do some house cleaning. Your house is getting dirtier by the day.
    Two of your staff pulled triggers on each other over a woman,and landed in hospital No death.
    Now here,again two officers supposedly fighting over awoman,and she dies under mysterious circumstance. Both in a span of two days.
    What kind of staff are you recruiting that are full of mental issues? You need to reevaluate your selection process. There seem to be more problems( killings) in your department than other governmental departments,everything being equal...These cops are becoming adisgrace to society.Not good.

    You forgot the expired woman was also a police officer,senior than her two husbands.But remember their overall boss(CIC Muigai Kamau&Ngina) leads them in all evils including corruption,prostitution and adultery,

    @ Morris Menye,thanks for noting the oversight.Wow. There is also another one here on Mwakilishi.Apparently he is alleged to have pushed his girlfriend to death from an apartment on 4th floor.
    I see why there is clamor for police men and women to have acollege degree.Probably "low standard of thinking",and less education is the problem.I wonder... But something is seriously wrong. A study is needed,and urgently.

    Either COVID heart attack or something poisonous put in her drink by colleagues to eliminate her.

    Autopsy does not mean much because it could also be manipulated to fit the desired outcome!

    Is bigamy not part of being polygamous? Woman can marry more than one man too, right?

    I don’t understand why women are subjected to different standards in the law while men can marry a gazillion wives and every body is happy with it!

    Simple logic. When she gets ball how will 2 men survive the long vacation? Shetani ashindwe. God intended one man one wife and peace and long life prevails.

  12. MsonoBariJul 6, 2021

    It's legal (from long ago) Men to be Polygamous; and Illegal for Women to be Bigamous. It's just in the Genes. Wacheni kutuConfuse as if haTuelewi BIBLIA.

    @mansini, yeap.What;s good for the goose is good for the gander.

  14. SallyJul 5, 2021

    Murimi and Mbitu should be arrested and a lie detector test administered to both of them! One of them is guilty of killing the lady inspector at the disadvantage of the other.

  15. Carol matumboJul 5, 2021

    Lie detectors don’t work, fool!

  16. GuestCJul 5, 2021

    Thats why you bring your own drink and come when you have eaten to a party with your peers if you know unacheza these kinds of games with people's emotions...pole to her family may she rip

    RIP sister RIP.
    DEATH IS THE ONLY EQUALIZER.
    RICH; POOR,POWERFUL...IT DOESN'T DISCRIMINATE.

    It has been Legal from Long ago for Men to be Polygamous; and Illegal for Women to be Bigamous. It's just in the Genes; and in Common sense. Wacheni kutuConfuse as if haTuelewi BIBLIA.

  19. MaxileyJul 6, 2021

    @ MsonoBari, our ancestors had no knowledge of what the heck genes were.Science has told us what it is. The same science tells us that both men and women were not designed to be monogamous,thus the rumphant cheating you see every day on both sides.
    You can deny the science if you want,but you cannot deny its effects.It pays to be open minded. Do you ever consider that you could be wrong on some of your beliefs?
    Remember marriage is a social construct designed by men.To fulfil,and improve their survival chances.
