Senator's Outrage: Influencer's Death in Police Custody Sparks Demands for Justice
Kenyan Senator Karen Nyamu's Outrage Over Influencer's Death in Custody Sparks Calls for Justice The death of popular Kenyan influencer Albert Ojwang while in police custody has ignited a firestorm of controversy. Senator Karen Nyamu, during a Senate session, delivered a powerful speech demanding accountability for Ojwang's death. Nyamu highlighted the fact that Ojwang was not properly booked into custody despite being transported 400 kilometers from Kisumu. "Even after driving him 400 kilometers...he was not booked in the occurrence book," she stated, expressing her disbelief and outrage. Nyamu's speech underscores the growing public anger and calls for justice. She directly addressed the lack of transparency and due process in Ojwang's case, demanding the implicated police officers be dismissed and brought to justice. Her words, "We want those police officers implicated...discontinued from police service immediately," reflect the widespread sentiment. The incident has raised serious questions about police conduct and the protection of citizens' rights in Kenya. The Senator's impassioned plea and the video evidence are likely to fuel further investigations and public discourse. The government's response to Senator Nyamu's demands and the ongoing investigation will be crucial in determining the course of justice in this case and restoring public trust in law enforcement.
