Homa Bay Governor Gladys Wanga claims people spread false information about MP Ong'ondo Were's murder on social media. She visited the late lawmaker's home, where she said the disinformation seemed planned to shift focus from his killing. The governor did not name who might be behind what she called a funded effort.
Wanga also said Were told police many times he feared for his life. She mentioned he wrote to the Inspector General about these threats. The governor asked what steps officers took after he reported his concerns.
The Director of Criminal Investigations announced Friday that they identified possible suspects in Were's murder. They described the crime as targeted and planned. DCI officials continue looking into all possible reasons behind the attack. Were died April 30 when gunmen on a motorcycle shot him near City Mortuary roundabout around 7:30 p.m. Before his death, the MP asked security agencies for protection because someone followed him.
