How Starlet Wahu died
Earlier, TUKO.co.ke reported that Wahu, the daughter of self-proclaimed prophetess Lucy Nduta, had checked into an Airbnb apartment in South B, Papino, with a man identified as John Matara.
However, things went sour between them, and Matara allegedly stabbed Wahu in the head and the thigh, leaving her for dead.

The owner of the Airbnb, Florence Ngina, said she was alerted by the gateman, who saw Matara fleeing the scene with blood-stained clothes.
She alerted police officers from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI), who arrived at the scene to gather evidence.
Police officers from the DCI were called to the crime scene in South B, where socialite Wahu was found murdered.
While processing the scene, detectives found a Samsung phone, a bottle of alcohol, condoms, marijuana and a kitchen knife suspected to be the murder weapon.
Apart from that, the crime scene investigators also found an HIV test kit whose results were negative.
Starlet Wahu's flashy lifestyle
The 26-year-old socialite lived large and shared photos flaunting her flashy lifestyle to the envy of many. From holidaying in Watamu to Dubai, Wahu gave her peers speechless nights.
Wahu's last post on social media was shared on November 20, 2023.
"Satisfy your soul, not society️," she wrote.
On her Instagram bio, Wahu referred to herself as 'Icey Wifey', which means a female who is high-maintenance and all about her money.
She also had heaven as her location in her bio.
"From heaven☁️," read the bio.
The lass was unbothered by critics who would criticise her for her lifestyle despite coming from a religious family. Her mother and two brothers, Kanyari and Jackson Waweru, are pastors.
Pastor Kanyari speaks after Starlet Wahu's death
In a separate story, TUKO.co.ke reported that Pastor Kanyari opened up after the death of his sister, Starlet Wahu.
In an interview with Nairobi News, pastor Kanyari spoke of his sister's untimely death. The man of God revealed that the man captured with his sister on the CCTV video had not met her family.
Kanyari noted that it was truly a sad time for the family, as they were heartbroken upon learning of their sister's death.
"I am heartbroken; she was doing so well in life. We last met on Christmas, and on December 31, we spent time together at home. We had not seen the man before. We learned about him after her death. This is so tragic for us, the family, and even her friends. May her soul rest in peace," he said.
