Mwende at peace, forgives husband who maimed her

READ: Lock up brute who did this to me for life!

“The doctor however said they would try to rectify his condition and assigned him medical visits which he never honoured,” a visibly distraught Mwende narrated.

Ngila, she says, lived in denial.

After that, the husband, she knew to be a born-again Christian, went back “to darkness” and started, “drinking alcohol, chewing miraa and smoking.”

This was just the beginning of a long and a painful journey, with a man who now knew he had a health condition barring him from having kids.

“He even started unusual quarrels and coming home or not showing up at all,” Mwende said of her husband, a tailor based in Masii town within the expansive Machakos County.

Mwende says he has been living alone for a year in their two bedroom brick house, which they built from hard earned savings.

“We bought a plot and built a house which all along…” she poses, attempts to wipe her watery eyes with her left elbow and continues: “We wanted to see our children play in the compound; have a family that would give us the true meaning of life and our hard work.”

But it however became apparent on July 25, when she was attacked that, “all my dreams were just that.”

Mwende’s specialised medication will kick off on Thursday.

Already detectives have recorded statements with Mwende and her parents over the incident.
