There was a drama in Kirinyaga on Wednesday night in the Ngurubani area of Mwea after a stepmother threw a seven-year-old boy into river Thiba.

According to Faith Wanjiru, a Soweto village elder, the suspect approached the Thiba River bridge and held her stepson’s hand before throwing him into the water.

“We could not believe it , when the woman threw the boy into the river and ran,” Wanjiru told Inooro TV.

Residents who watched the unfolding incident from across the road had a difficult time helping the boy, who was wailing for help.

“The boy was crying for help from his step-mother saying he thought she was taking him to take supper in a local hotel.’ John Kinyua, a witness, said,

The father of the boy, Dennis Musili who arrived immediately after he was called by the residents said he left the boy with his stepmother and provided her with money to buy supper.

‘ I married her two years ago after we separated from my wife. I wonder why she wanted to kill the boy by throwing him into river Thiba.’ Musili said.

Musili said his son is in Grade 2.

‘We have taken the boy to a local private hospital and he is out of danger, I will go with the boy at my house as I have no children as police continue looking for the woman.’ Faith Wanjiru, the village elder added.
