The deceased is said to have returned home drunk after a night out with his friends.
A neighbour, Samuel Njungâe, said the couple often differed over the manâs drinking habits. Njungâe said the wife had always complained about the manâs failure to provide for the children and was always drunk.
âThe man would spend all his salary on liquor and would return home late in the evening drunk and penniless,â he said.
A senior police said the wife has recorded a statement as part of the ongoing investigations.
