On her part, Emily Kerubo demanded justice for Ragira and wondered why his killers were yet to be apprehended.

"It is sad that we are attending Ragira's burial but police are yet to arrest those who killed him. We are burying his body but the spirit will remain with us. May he hunt down his killers and bring them down," said Kerubo a student at Kisii University.
