ODM deputy party leader and governor 001 was brutally attacked in Migori Town. As everyone is trying to guess the hidden hand in what the opposition believes was an attempted assassination, the Mombasa governor seems to know who the trained attackers were. Joho said that the assassins were trained officers who shot one bodyguard and fired several bullets at the governor’s vehicle.
“Earlier today, together with my delegation, we came under a brutal attack in Migori Town by people we have reason to believe were trained security officers in civilian attires. The entire operation had all the markings of an assassination attempt which left one of our bodyguards shot and wounded in the leg wounded and the vehicle in which I was riding hit with bullets at least two bullets,” read part of Joho’s speech.
The top Railamaniac coastal king pointed out those who have been fueling verbal attacks as the potential brains behind the ugly scenes. He urged relevant state organs to take control the situation before verbal attacks are transformed into physical threats.
“We believe that the events of today are part of a growing pattern of the politically motivated attacks and intolerance that we have witnessed in recent days even though until today, those attacks have mostly been verbal. This pattern must be arrested before it escalates out of control. Only thorough investigations and bringing of perpetrators to justice will save the situation,” read the speech.
