The family calls slain MP Charles Ongondo a good man who lived for his people. They want fast answers about who killed him on Wednesday near City Mortuary. Police say someone planned this attack carefully against the lawmaker.
Family members asked police on Thursday to hurry their work finding who shot Ongondo on Ngong Road. They thanked everyone for the kind messages after losing their loved one. They worry about safety for all Kenyans when an elected official dies this way.
Police report Ongondo sat in his white Toyota at a red light around 7:30 p.m. A motorcycle stopped nearby with two riders. One person walked up, fired into the car, then sped away. The driver rushed Ongondo to the hospital, but he died before doctors could help him.
Senior officers came to the scene right away. They say this looks like a planned murder, not a random crime. The car driver and another passenger survived without harm. Detectives continue putting together what happened during those few deadly moments.
