Radio host Mwalimu Rachel has warned women to stay alert and trust their instincts following the death of a 22-year-old woman in Kileleshwa.
On Monday, April 27, 2026, she said the incident is painful and shows the risks many young women face. She explained that such cases should not be taken lightly as investigations continue.
This comes as police in Nairobi are investigating the death of Consolata Githinji after an incident at a short-stay apartment. She was reported to have fallen from the sixth floor of a building in Kileleshwa. She was a fourth-year student at Muranga University and died during the early hours of the morning.
“Bring back paranoia. Or maybe, call it your gut feeling,” Mwalimu Rachel said.
She explained that the loss of a young life is heartbreaking and should raise concern. She said the woman had many years ahead of her and dreams that were still waiting. She added that the situation shows how quickly life can change.
“Another day, and sadly another unfortunate passing of a young lady, 22 years of age at an Airbnb,” Mwalimu Rachel said.
Growing concern over safety
She said she does not know whether the young woman knew the man involved, but called for full investigations. She explained that authorities must ensure justice is served. She added that those responsible should face the law.
“Whether she knew this man or not, I don’t know. And I do hope and pray that the police actually get to the bottom of this,” Mwalimu Rachel said.
She also stressed that women need to be more careful and aware of their surroundings. She said people should listen to their instincts and not ignore warning signs. She added that safety should always come first, despite the situation.
“I don’t think we are paranoid enough, ladies,” Mwalimu Rachel said.
She explained that it is unfortunate that people have to think this way, but said it reflects the reality of the world today. She said women should not have to live in fear but must take precautions. She added that awareness can help prevent similar cases.
“We shouldn’t live like this, but that is the way this world is,” Mwalimu Rachel said.
