The young woman’s mother, Elizabeth Samuel, painfully shared how she learned of her daughter’s death and their final conversation before she was allegedly killed.

“She is my firstborn. She had only been working for the past two weeks, and when she complained to me about her colleagues, I told her to quit. But she refused, saying I should at least let her finish one month,” she said.
Elizabeth said she was against her daughter working at a bar, but Precious convinced her she needed the money to start her life.
The devastated mother shared that Precious had been advised that if working hours stretched late into the night, she should not return home but remain at the bar until morning for safety.
“She had returned home the previous two nights, but on this fateful day, she didn’t. In the morning, she still hadn’t shown up at her usual time around 6 am, and her phone was off.”

Worried, Elizabeth went to the entertainment joint and asked some of Precious’s colleagues, who dismissed her concerns when she inquired about her daughter’s whereabouts.

“They told me to wait for her at the reception. I was worried because I wanted her to take her child to the hospital, but the ladies insisted she was asleep and that I should wait,” she noted.
At 11 am, one of the employees entered the locked lodging room through the window but came out saying there was no one inside, only for them to later discover that Precious was dead.
Elizabeth has called for swift investigations into the matter and for those responsible for her daughter’s death to be brought to justice.
What happened to Precious?
Precious had reportedly checked into the lodging with a man who had entered the entertainment joint as one of their customers.
A few hours after entering the room, the man allegedly left, locking the door from the outside and disappearing with the key.
He left Precious in the room, where she was later found lifeless the following morning.
Why is there a rise in femicide cases?
TUKO.co.ke talked to Cleopa Kinyua Njiru, a counselling psychologist who shed light on the probable causes of the current rise in femicide.
Njiru shared his opinion on why men find themselves reacting violently to certain situations in relationships when provoked.
He said one reason for such cases is a lack of role models and people to look up to.
“These men are not well informed when it comes to relationships, and that, coupled with the demands put upon them on their relationships plus heartbreaks, breed trauma and feelings of revenge,” he stated.
Netizens console grieving mum
The mum's ordeal broke the hearts of netizens, with many rushing to console her amidst her grief.
Here are some of the comments:
Ezekiel Magina
"There is more than just being a parent. All parents want the best for their children. Why can't these children understand their parents? Parents are getting depressed. Poleni familia, God knows better."
Pesh MumTish Lyne said:
"No one is perfect...mwanamke yeyote amelala na mwanaume zaidi ya mmoja huyo pia. Mum sorry for the loss. My condolences."
Everlyne Blessed Wafula
"Your parent is your second God; listen to them. There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death. The ear that hears the rebukes of life will abide among the wise. He who disdains instruction despises his soul, but he who heeds rebuke gets understanding."
Phoebe C Fibi said:
"Rest in peace, girl who died in the line of duty. Pole sana to your mum."
