THIRTY-three-year
old Neema Mwita Wambura (in picture), who suffered severe burns two years ago, says that the
only period she had happiness during her marriage of 18 years, was the first
two months.
“I do not wish or intend to
marry again considering the agony I went through during marriage,” she says.
“My marriage had always
been miserable but the only thing that kept me going was my three children. I’m
terrified, and do not want to return to Mara Region as long as I know that my
husband is still free.
My children and I can stay
anywhere but not in Bunda. If a person is ready to help me I’ll be very
grateful,” she says with tears flowing in her face. Neema, now admitted at the
Muhimbili National Hospital, identifies her children as Wambura Haruni (14),
George Haruni (10) and Sarah Haruni (5).
Looking at her scars on the
chest, left and right arm, she says what led to her miserable life was two

to help me. Immediately after he reached where I was, he reminded me that my
days were numbered and began beating me continuously,” she explains. READ MORE
