Monicah Nyawira Kimani who is a former Nation Media group employee, was found dead at her house in Luciane apartments on Kitale Lane, off Dennis Pritt road.
Monica’s body was discovered by her brother George Thiru, on Thursday floating in a bathtub inside her apartment.
“….tulivunja mlango tukaingia, nilipata amekatwa shingo na ako dipped in a bathtub with her hands tied and the water was running,” George told the media.
Now, the family is crying foul over her murder pointing fingers at two unidentified men who visited the 29-year-old woman.
George claims that the late Monicah introduced the two men by name to a neighbour before she ushered them into the apartment.
Their father, Bishop Paul Ngarama of Rebuilding Apostolic Faith Mission church, explained that his family had been unable to follow up with the witness - who had talked to the people who last saw her daughter.
Apparently the management of the apartment blocks has barred them from talking to the neighbour to get more details.
Bishop Paul Ngarama narrated how he found out Monicah had been killed. His son called him after discovering her body floating in the bath tab, with her hands tied to her back.
"I started praying, then my son told me, 'Ohhh Monicah wamemuua, wame mukatakata.' I started crying there and then. I couldn't believe what he was talking about."
Her brother added, "Her birthday was next month and she had arranged with my brother to host a party, because most of her birthdays are done in South Sudan because she works there. So she was supposed to do a birthday here with everyone. She has organised to call everyone from the grandma to everyone."
George said that the last time he spoke to her she was in a cab heading home. The conversation was hurried.
Later when George called Monicah again, she did not pick up, neither did she respond to his Whatsapp message. This caused some alarm bells to go off in his head.
George went to visit her a day later, on Thursday night at 11pm only to find her floating dead in her bath tab.
Speaking to Sunday Standard, George said, "She was keen to return to Nairobi as she was supposed to fly to Dubai for a holiday. In fact she was to return back from her holiday on September 28. Sadly, this was never to be and this is the day we are planning to bury her."
