'No one else paid her fees but her parents' Ivy Wangechi's mother denies rumors

The student was brutally killed last Tuesday by a man who claimed to be her boyfriend.

Naftali Kinuthia attacked Ivy outside Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital where she worked.

He stormed the premises brandishing a brand new axe.

Winfred Waithera, who is Ivy's mother over the weekend mourned her late daughter revealing she was ' a sweet girl'.

While addressing journalists in her Thika home, Ivy Wangechi's mother also denied reports that Nafatali Kinuthia was paying her daughters school fees.

“These character vandals went out there spreading false and damaging information about somebody they did not know and had no reason to attack,” Waithera said.

“As her mother, I want to state that no one paid her fees apart from her parents and the government through the Joint Admissions Board. She never deferred her studies and never sat a supplementary exam.”

The family announced that the student’s burial is slated for Thursday next week at her parents’ home in Mahiga, Nyeri county.
