Opposition Supremo Raila Odinga’s wife Ida left people in tears after she voiced her concerns about the current wave of killings involving people in love.
The former University lecturer issued a clarion call to young people urging them to go slow on love.
“You are not the first people to fall in love,” she quipped. ” Even us we did fall in love one time.”
In 2019 alone, some 38 women were killed by the month of April. The number has significantly increased with reports revealing several assault and suicide cases.
Ms Odinga also urged men to learn to let go when they are rejected by the ladies.
“Kama Msichana hakutaki au amekuacha, usimuue,” she warned. (When you are rejected or when a lady leaves you, do not kill her).
“If she’s smarter than you, don’t kill her, there are many more,” she added.
Ms Odinga, who has been married for the last 45 years advised dull men to seek their female dull mates instead of killing women who are smarter than them.
“If you find her too smart, leave her go and look for a dull one like you,” she noted.
