A Love Turned to Tragedy: Felista Kitua’s Brutal Murder at Uhuru Market, Nairobi

In a heartbreaking turn of events, a love story that had soured ended in unimaginable tragedy yesterday when Felista Kitua, 40, was fatally stabbed at her tailoring shop in Uhuru Market.

Felista, a mother of two, had recently broken up with her lover, Agostini Neto, after months of escalating threats and violence. She had reported Agostini to the police, resulting in a court order that required him to stay away from her.

Despite the order, Agostini frequently defied it, often appearing at Felista’s shop, reportedly harassing and threatening her. According to witnesses, the tension had been growing over the past few weeks.

The Fatal Attack
Yesterday, tragedy struck in broad daylight. Agostini stormed into Felista’s tailoring shop and stabbed her four times in the chest, ending her life instantly. The brutal attack left the Uhuru Market community in shock.

Police arrived quickly at the scene and arrested Agostini, preventing him from fleeing. He is now in custody as investigations continue.

A Mother Mourned
Felista’s sudden and violent death has left her family and friends in deep mourning. She leaves behind two young children who now face a future without their mother.

Police Response
Authorities are urging anyone experiencing threats or domestic violence to seek immediate help and to take legal protective measures seriously.
