Am I going too far to save this marriage?

Help Center

man kamute

Dear Harold,

I am contemplating seeking intervention of a witchdoctor for ‘kamute’ (love portion/concoction) to save my marriage that is, by all means, an empty shell.

My family is fast tearing apart after my husband of barely five years has completely lost interest in me. Not even trips to marriage counsellors have worked out.

I even allowed him to go ahead and marry his current girlfriend in the hope that he would come back to me when it fails, but this has also not worked.

He does not seem interested in marrying a second wife. Despite being a modern woman with a decent job, I am seriously thinking of visiting a witchdoctor for the love potions that I hear has the potential to restore ailing marriages. However, I am aware that the concoction may backfire and even lead to death.

What would be the legal implications, if the love potion fails and he dies?

Dear Wambui,

In case that love portion, as you are putting it, backfires and your husband dies, chances are high that you may be charged with murder depending on the evidence the prosecution would present in court. The case may also go against you if it is confirmed that he died following consumption of the concoction and postmortem reports also reveal the same. If found guilty and the court finds that you had a motive to kill, then you may be either sentenced to hang or spend your life in jail. There are reported cases of women convicted for killing their spouses. In a recent case, a woman was sentenced to 30 years.
