Taita Taveta Governor Granton Samboja has warned the community against discriminating widows. Owing to the suffering that most widows undergo after losing their husbands, the community has been called upon to live in harmony with widows.
According to Hope Wawuda who is a widow from Wundanyi sub-county and a secretary of Taita Taveta Widows Association, many widows are kicked out of their matrimonial homes moments after losing their husbands.
