Drama ensued in Siaya County yesterday after a local head teacher and a married woman were caught red-handed in a compromising situation inside a rented room on the outskirts of the town.
According to eyewitnesses, the incident began when the woman’s husband, a bodaboda operator, received information that his wife had been seen entering a guesthouse with the teacher.
Furious, he mobilized fellow riders who stormed the premises and caught the pair in the act. What followed left residents stunned.
The enraged husband, assisted by angry bodaboda riders, allegedly forced the two out of the room and paraded them naked through the town on motorbikes as residents filmed the shocking incident. Videos of the ordeal soon went viral on social media, sparking mixed reactions.

While some sympathized with the husband, others condemned the public humiliation, saying the matter should have been handled privately or reported to the authorities.
Police officers from Siaya confirmed they are investigating the matter and cautioned residents against acts of mob justice, noting that such actions are criminal.
The head teacher, whose identity is being withheld, is reportedly recovering from minor injuries, while the woman has since gone into hiding as investigations continue.
