A college student was on Wednesday found dead in her parents’ house at Maziwa village in Kitale, Trans Nzoia County, in a suspected case of suicide.\n<\/p>\n
Diana Moraa, 25, is suspected to have used a neck-tie to hang herself inside her bedroom.\n<\/p>\n
Moraa, who was a second-year nursing student at a local medical college, is said to have asked her father for Sh200 she wanted to use in a cyber cafe. <\/p>\n
Her mother Beatrice Adema said her daughter left home after making a call to someone using her father’s phone.\n<\/p>\n
“She returned home around 9am and went straight to her room,” Ms Adema said, adding; “I didn’t bother with her much when she came back home because I was busy in the kitchen<\/p>\n
She added: “She had not come out of the room by 3pm and we became suspicious. We knocked on her door but there was no response.”\n<\/p>\n
Shimei Nyakeriga, Moraa’s father, said they alerted a Nyumba Kumi initiative official. “He helped us break into the room and we found Moraa’s body dangling from the roof on a neck-tie. The incident has shocked my family to the core. Even our neighbours are shocked,” he said.\n<\/p>\n
“We don’t know why my daughter took her life. There had been no sign she was in trouble. She had not even complained about anything,” the distraught father said. <\/p>\n
A neighbour, who only identified herself as mama Mbugua said: “Moraa was a polite girl. We don’t understand why she ended her life. Her parents had sacrificed everything to enable her complete her course.”\n<\/p>\n
“She is a polite girl in the village, and we don’t understand why she ended her life while her parents sacrificed to have complete\u00a0her course,” asserted a neighbour who identify only as mama Mbugua.\n<\/p>\n
Kwanza OCPD James Odero said they have already launched investigations into the incident even as the police took the body to the mortuary. \u00a0\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
