Bilhah Njoki Mwangi was a co director in a thriving electronics business on Luthuli Avenue. She ran it together with her husband, Joseph Muraya Mwangi. Joseph worked as a ground traffic controller at KAA, Jomo Kenyatta International Airport. Between his airport salary and their retail empire, the man had built serious wealth.
They lived comfortably in Buruburu Phase 5, one of Nairobi's most prestigious Eastlands estates. Bilhah drove a black Toyota Harrier. The kind of car that screamed corporate elite.On the outside, this was a power couple. A good home, a profitable business, two young children.
But behind closed doors, things were falling apart. Nine years of marriage had turned into mistrust, money fights, and accusations of infidelity. In March 2016, Bilhah walked out. She left her two young children, ages five and eight, in Joseph's care. She moved to Umoja, straight into the arms of her lover, Jimmy Ndung'u Waititu.
But leaving wasn't enough. She wanted everything: the house, the shop, the benefits. And divorce would give her none of that. So she made a decision that would change everything. Joseph had to die. Bilhah roped in her lover Jimmy. Then her own siblings, Lucy Waitherero and Peter Mwangi Gakungi, joined the plan.
A family turned into a hit squad. They put a KSh 500,000 bounty on Joseph's head. A KSh 100,000 deposit, with the balance of 400,000 to be paid once there was proof the job was done. They tracked his routine, his car, his route to work. Everything.
But somebody talked. An informant tipped off Buruburu DCI boss Jeremiah Ikiao about the plot. Instead of arresting Bilhah on the spot, the DCI played it smart. Weak conspiracy charges wouldn't stick in court. They needed her caught red handed.
So detectives found Joseph at work and told him the truth. His wife wanted him dead. Joseph didn't run. He agreed to become bait. He handed over his car, his schedule, his phone. Complete cooperation. The hit was planned for June 22, 2016, along his usual commute.
But DCI struck a day early, June 21, and grabbed the hired killers before they even moved. Then came the genius part. Detectives kept the killers' phones active and texted Bilhah. Job done, body dumped in Dandora, come with the balance. They staged a fake crime scene. A dummy dressed in Joseph's own clothes, lying face down in the dirt in Dandora.
Photos of the "body" were sent directly to Bilhah's phone. She believed it. Completely. No grief, no shock. Just celebration. She packed a bottle of wine in her Harrier, withdrew the KSh 400,000, and headed to Umoja to pay the "hitmen." Her sister Lucy rode with her.
Near Mama Lucy Hospital, DCI officers were already waiting, guns ready, exits blocked. The moment her car stopped, they swarmed it. Bilhah was found sitting there, cash on her lap, wine in the back seat. Caught red handed.
Within a day, the rest of the syndicate, her lover Jimmy and her brother Peter, were also in custody. All four were arraigned at Makadara Law Courts on June 29, 2016. Joseph testified his life was in "mortal danger." Courts still granted bail.
Big mistake. While out on bond, Bilhah broke into Joseph's house to steal marital property. She was arrested again on July 13, 2016. Prosecutors moved fast. They petitioned the High Court to cancel her bail entirely.
Today, Bilhah Njoki Mwangi remains a free woman. The case against her is still active in court, moving slowly, years after the plot to kill her own husband unraveled. A woman who plotted to kill her husband for his money, betrayed by her own greed twice over, and still waiting for justice to catch up with her.
