A 23-year-old third year university student identified as
Valerie Apondi, was on Saturday murdered by her boyfriend who accused
her of being unfaithful, The Star reports.
The incident took place in the wee hours of the morning in a guest
house in Bondo town. Apondi, who was pursuing a Bachelor’s Degree in
Logistics and Supply Chain Management at the Jaramogi Oginga Odinga
University of Science and Technology, was found dead in a pool of blood
in the room they had booked.
The caretaker of the guest house said the two booked the room on
Friday at around 8pm. The suspect, Collins Oluoch Ogweno, 25, a nurse at
Nightingale Hospital in Kisumu is said to have killed Apondi with a
machete.
The deceased’s friend who spoke on condition of anonymity said Oluoch
persuaded Valerie to move out of school even though she did not want
to. This is not the first time the two have had a heated argument. The
couple also have a child together.
