Chilling Discovery: JKUAT Student Identified as Victim in TRM Rental Murder

Chilling Discovery: JKUAT Student Identified as Victim in TRM Rental Murder

The woman who was murdered and her body dismembered in a temporary rental in Roysambu, Nairobi, has been named as Rita Waeni Muendo, a 20-year-old student at Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology (Jkuat).

On the night of January 14th, before her tragic demise, Ms. Muendo departed from her aunt's residence in Syokimau to rendezvous with a companion, as stated by Dr. Lilian Mutea, the family representative. At 5 am the next day, an anonymous individual, assumed to be the perpetrator, sent a message to Ms Muendo's father, insisting on a ransom of Sh500,000 to ensure her safe release. The family has verified the deceased's identity and believes that she was murdered by her abductor, who then proceeded to extort money from them.

It has been claimed that the assailant may have rendered the victim unconscious and then proceeded to dismember her in the bathroom of the rented property. An undisclosed source says in a statement, "There is a strong belief that the individual responsible for this crime drugged the woman before ending her life. This act took place within the confines of the rented residence." The suspect successfully eluded detection by employing fraudulent documents and a phone number registered under a female alias.

He was tracked to Ruaka sub-County in the days leading up to the incident, eventually relocating to the Roysambu area just hours before the gruesome killing. According to Kasarani sub-County police boss Joseph Muriuki, three individuals, including the one apprehended at JKIA, had been arrested by Wednesday.

Nigeria wash wash is infiltrating the Kenyan environment because of Ruto’s no visitors Visa policy. Wasichana be careful out there and stop being money hungry.

Fake Jacob was born after 12/12/2023.Nigerian,Somali,Ethiopian etc criminals/killers with VISAs were still killing Kenyans at will for decades,yaani before 12/12/2023.Kina Wanjiru,Raila,Kabogo,Owino etc do not require VISA to kill Kenyans.Watch out Jakubu bandia,you might be their next target.

Rita, very sorry for what happened to you. Rest in peace. May the Lord hunt and deal with the Killers. May your family find healing at this distressing time.

These porous borders that have been permitted by our country will result in Rot. There are some cultures that one can never change and which should only be confined within thier borders. Nigerians and our West African counterparts, have, and will always be involved in the occult and other forms of wickedness. Now they have been allowed to spread thier evil tentacles via the porous and corrupt borders of Kenya. Social media safety needs to be emphasised particularly to young people. Young men and women are especially vulnerable and modern trafficiking and slavery is underpinned by Social Media.

These naija animals were scattered in RSA but now infesting Kenya like rats. Ladies must be taught to be conservative and date for marriage not pleasure reasons. These gangs are not just out to impress ladies better than Kenya men but it's bc they want their money, body organs, bewitch them, drug mules, human sacrifice, human trafficking etc. But the ladies are blinded with chips and chicken plus sweet useless words. Police men have seen it all. Guys use the ladies phones for crimes. It's worse than a thiefs stealing from you and taking you out to treat you using your own money.

Kenyan women seem to be obsessed with Nigerian men for reasons I can't understand. They apparently either believe the trash coming out of Naija movies or are horribly desperate. Either way they need some serious education about Nigeria and Nigerian's international notoriety. Perhaps we need to get back to traditional arranged marriage and romance to protect our ignorant women from the beasts they choose to fall for.

Kenyan women are “horribly desperate” for those deceptive crooks from Nigeria! They get lied to that the Nigerian man got ton load of oil money and no wonder the Kenyan women are ending up missing or dead because of the love for money. Now the roosters have arrived home to rest, hopefully Kenyan women will wake up and understand who the Nigerians are!

The fruits of the nonsensical OPEN BORDER POLICY makes our shìthole the criminals capital of the world! There is a reason well to do and good governed countries have strict immigration laws and well regulated borders!!!

The idea of an open policy where any human being wishing to come to Kenya is given a green light by Ndugu Samoei Cherop Ruto should be stopped immediately.
