Kenyans Puzzled As Man Fakes Death Of Alleged Conwoman In KSh 220k Theft To Trace Her

• GM Ruirie leveraged the belief that desperate times calls for desperate measures in his bid to trace an alleged swindler
• He claimed that a lady identified as Rebecca Awinja fleeced a kin of his KSh 200,00, with an outsider claiming she lost KSh 20,000 to her
• Ruirie had also claimed that Awinja abandoned a vehicle she had hired from him; to catch her, the man put up a Facebook post announcing the supposed swindler's death

Nairobi - A man has caused a frenzy on his Facebook timeline after he went public with a fake death announcement of his lady friend.

Identified as G.M Ruirie, the man claimed his kin had been swindled by the woman who cut contact with them thereafter.

To attract her attention, Ruirie posted on Facebook that she had died.

"Rebecca Awinja, Rest in Peace,"

Instead of the post attracting sympathy and sad reactions, those responding found everything funny about it, and newcomers would be astounded by the jest around the death of a living human that should otherwise evoke sadness.

To burst the bubble of his audience, Ruirie suggested that how he did it was the best way to seek the whereabouts of the woman in question after she could not be reached for a time.

He was prompted by a follower named Lucy Wachira, who explained that Rebecca was much alive contrary to the post.

"Imagine she is alive. Where did you get the info?" posed Wachira.

Having waited for such a comment as the above, Ruirie went ahead to reveal the advent of his bad blood with the woman, listing three instances in which she allegedly misbehaved.

He divulged that Rebecca hired his car and later abandoned it in Nakuru, swindled his relative KSh 200,000 and another woman KSh 20,000.

After all the aforementioned, she could not be traced.

"Thanks to this post, I have received more details about her and her location. She hired my Pajero and abandoned it in Nakuru sometime back. She went on to con a relative of mine KSh 200,000. and another young lady KSh 20,000. She is a con artist. Call her again and tell her mambo ni ma-wili sio matatu," said Ruirie.
