On Saturday, a 32-year-old man from Kajiado county found himself in a compromising situation when his wife walked in on him in bed with his cousin.
Leikun, as he is popularly known, had been denying his wife's suspicions of a close relationship with his cousin, Mary, for a long time.
According to Leilah, her husband's cousin had been staying with them five years ago after completing secondary school and attending evening classes at a university in Nairobi CBD.
During the day, Mary would assist with house chores and attend to customers at an agro vet they jointly owned with Leikun in Kitengela.
When Leilah's husband was caught in the act, he confessed that he found Mary very attractive and that she liked him too.
He claimed that they understood the relationship was toxic but couldn't stop as the bond between them continued growing stronger every day.
Leilah was left heartbroken and unable to bear the pain of her husband's words, she landed on him with hot slaps before dashing to the kitchen to fetch a cooking stick.
She taught her husband and his cousin a lesson of a lifetime before neighbours intervened and calmed her down.
Leilah credited a native doctor, Ndumba wa Ndumba, with helping her catch the two in the act.
She had read about the herbalist from a viral news website where a report complete with a video on how he had helped a man from Kitale catch his cheating wife was documented.
Ndumba was also touted on a recorded TV bulletin for his ability to catch thieves, including a farmer from Uasin Gishu who had recovered his stolen Probox vehicle.
