Police in Nairobi are investigating the death of a young woman following an incident at a short-stay apartment in Kileleshwa. The woman, identified as Consolata Githinji, was reported to have fallen from the sixth floor of the building.
Consolata Githinji, a 22-year-old 4th-year student at Muranga University, is reported to have died following an incident at Kaisa Garden Apartments in Kileleshwa, where she allegedly fell from the sixth floor of an Airbnb unit during the early hours of the morning.
