Former radio presenter and Daily Nation writer Ciku Muiruri rubbed netizens the wrong way after in a post she shared on her Facebook page regarding slain Dutch tycoon Tob Cohen.
In a lengthy post shared on Friday, September 13, 2019, the journalist and author gave a detailed account of the day she allegedly interacted with the Cohens.
She gave a brief narration of the day she interacted with murdered Dutch businessman Tob Cohen and his widow Sarah Wairimu at their home in Kitisuru, adding that the couple bought her book Love is But a Dream.
"I knew Tob Cohen. I was fortunate enough to visit their home late last year. He and Sarah, have a lovely home, well put together. They both bought a copy of #LoveisButADream," read an excerpt of her Facebook post.
It was the latter that incensed Kenyans, who took to her page and gave her an earful.
"We are here mourning a life that has been gruesomely lost and instead of you condemning the act you here talking about the dogs and bonding? As if that's the most important thing here. As if that's not enough you go ahead and start advertising your senseless book at someone's funeral? what's wrong with you?" Stanley Kinyua posted.
Some were quick to point out the irony of selling a book titled 'love is but a dream' to a couple that ended up totally broken.
"If only you had not sold them that book....maybe Cohen would still be alive today," Onyango Victor posted.
