On February 8, 2016, a Citizen TV video circulated showing Wangari confronting her husband after years of alleged battering at their home in Thika.
In the clip, Wangari said, “I escaped from the house after 3 months in captivity.” The video framed the dispute as a domestic abuse case, with Wangari describing a long period of mistreatment before she got away.
The source material does not provide a fuller account from the husband, and it does not include a police statement, court filing, or later update on the matter. The only preserved details are the allegation of battering, Wangari’s account of captivity, and the Thika location.
The video was uploaded with a YouTube source link, and the archive item identifies the clip as coming from Citizen TV, which is described in the source as Kenya’s leading television station.
