Residents of Kong'onge village in Homa Bay County are in shock after a 30-year-old woman killed her two children and died by suicide over plans by her husband to marry a second wife.

Veronica Anyango’s body was found dangling from a tree in her home in Kayoo Sub Location, Rachuonyo West Sub-county on Sunday.

The woman reportedly waited until other family members had left the home and called her four children into the house before she stepped out and looked door.
