A 45-year-old woman from Matayo Village in Likuyani Constituency, Kakamega County left her husband in shock on Friday after she took his livestock and household items to her parents as dowry.

Jacqueline Inyuma waited until her spouse, Silvanus Lihanda, 52, left for Eldoret, Uasin Gishu County to take his pregnant cow, three sheep, sofa set, table, wall unit, three 90 kg bags of maize and other household items.

Inyuma said she acted that way because her husband has "never taken anything to my parents as dowry despite our 18-year marriage".

The couple is blessed with a 16-year-old son.

Lihanda, on the other hand, said he thinks his partner took his possessions to "start life afresh elsewhere".
