Thursday, September 18, 2025 - Fresh details have emerged about the tragic death of Esther Gati, the Kisii businesswoman who was torched by her husband, Fred Mokaya, in a shocking incident at Daraja Mbili.
Sources close to the family revealed that Esther had
confided in friends and relatives that she was planning to leave her troubled
marriage just a day before her life was brutally cut short.
Behind the glamorous photos she often shared online with her
husband, it is now clear that the couple’s relationship had been marred by
bitter disputes and irreconcilable differences.
On the night of the incident, Mokaya allegedly set Esther
ablaze before attempting to stage the crime scene as a gas explosion.
A viral video showed him fleeing the burning house with
severe burns, but detectives later established that the gas cylinder was
intact.
Esther, who became a stepmother to Mokaya’s children after
his first wife left, was a hardworking and successful boutique owner.
Friends allege that Mokaya preyed on her stability and
financial success.
