When Edinald Atieno graduated from Kenyatta University two weeks ago, her family in Ngege village started preparing for her homecoming.

But preparations for a feast turned into burial arrangements after Ms Atieno was stabbed to death by her boyfriend of four years in Kahawa Wendani, Kiambu County, on Monday.
