A 27-year-old pregnant woman suffered burns to 45 per cent of her body after she set herself aflame over her husband’s alleged extra-marital affair.
Cythia Njoki sustained injuries in her hands, abdomen, thighs and face after attempting to commits suicide in her house at Langalanga estate using Kerosene after her husband failed to explain where he spent the Saturday night, August 14.
Ms Njoki said her husband, a mechanic, failed to return home that night and when he came on Sunday evening, he kept on calling a woman she suspected was having an affair with him. In anger, she went into their bedroom, poured kerosene on her body and set herself alight.
“I had an issue with my husband after he failed to report home and on coming, he continued to call a woman he was having a relationship with. I was angry and burnt myself,” said Njoki who was in deep pain at Rift Valley Provincial Hospital.
Nursing officer in charge of the ward, Jenipher Mathenge said the patient was received on Sunday night at around 8pm in a critical condition.
“The patient was received in a very critical condition, with her hands, face, abdomen and thighs burnt. Her fingers are also totally burnt,” Mathenge said.
She said the Ms Njoki, who is six months pregnant also has breathing problems after she inhaled hot air.
They are investigating the status of the unborn baby after they noticed the foetus had irregular heart beat.
“The patient is pregnant and we are conducting further investigations to know the status of the unborn child,” she said.
The patient’s mother Mary Wangui said she rushed to the hospital immediately after she was informed about the incident but could not communicate with Njoki because she had breathing difficulties.
Ms Wangui said prior to the incident, Njoki had shared with her the problems she was going through due to the alleged promiscuity. She asked the husband what happened but he did not give a clear explanation, claiming to have received a phone call from a woman whom Njoki suspected was his lover.
She felt pain while the other woman felf the sweetness.

Nonsense, is the man worth it?. You want to kill yourself bcos of man. I wonder what you could have told your maker if you had died in the process.

Abeg ,spear me those crap.love indeed?was it love that made the so called husband sleep with another woman?
Now he will be with the lady in the phone… Hope you recover soon
PB. The comments tho
There are men, and there are men,it depends on which one belongs
Social media. Possible diri asya it reason y na burn sya.
You are cruel because you think of only yourself not even the baby you’re carrying in your womb.that means you don’t love that baby you’re carrying in your womb.in fact after you delivered of that baby in your womb ,the baby needs to be taken away from you and go and die for love that never exist.
Sakto it reason. Haha news iton tiii.
Selfish woman… u could have thought of the baby who is purely innocent… smh
Don’t believe in suicide but, that’s so damn painful, oh my God smdh
You went to kill your self ,because of a fool
Stupid woman try to kill yourself because your husband slept with another woman because getting married u should hv known men are not saint
Women stop putting men before yourself and your children, if he’s going to cheat you can’t stop him but you can leave and still be alive and well for the next man, maybe he will be the love you have always wanted, but you will never know if your dead.
who dem epp?u sound as if they do women any good by marrying dem,if not for children many naigeria women wount marry the heartless nigeria men mmtccheeww
Love ur comment joor
Aw sakto? U0001f602 hahahaha. I dunno eh. U0001f602
Selfish indeed if his mom could leave him for you what makes you think he’s only yours, you think your husband is me that am only into Sandra Solomon? Wanya papa
Stupidity @its peak..now you suffer the pain while she enjoy d sweetness…u did’nt even think of d innocent child in ur womb…arrrra.!4how long will u keep burning urself.?take it only to God in prayer.
Wenty Alfah lol

He is going to leave you for good you soo stupid
Wenty Alfah Madam I See U N Efo en pic for Abu Dhabi I no talk oo I no tlk say Efo die for your hands oo no come spoil my line oo I no like that oh Charley u but why ? Hmmm
Before you condemn it could be that the woman worked on false information… Pregnant women are usually over sensitive it’s not a curse..its hormones…. Maybe she wanted attention… Who knows
She said he failed to explain…. The woman has mental issues
No normal person would do this
