Cate Kirui (not her real name) is a troubled woman. She is married to an overly protective man. “My hubby is strange. He is basically what you would call a nag. I have persevered for long but I just don’t know what to do. I can’t take it any more,” Cate opens up to this writer. “He wants to accompany me virtually everywhere I go. I never enjoy weekends.
