Activist Boniface Mwangi has accused the government of allegedly sending rogue agents to blow up a house.
He was building for his family in Lukenya, Machakos County. The incident took place on Wednesday night.
The Pawa254 founder said the alleged bomb sank the foundation of the house, adding that the “thugs” also robbed his workers.
“I’m not a criminal. I don’t do deals. I have never compromised my values. The State has blown up the house my family was building. The bullets, the explosives they used are on the scene. So what kind of a country are we living in?” He posed.
He intimated that the act may have been as a result of his activism work.However, he vowed that he shall not be intimated and will soldier on undeterred, in spite of what it costs him.
“All I ask is an open and transparent investigation. If speaking [the] truth will get me killed, I’m ready to die,” he said.
Former Chief Justice Willy Mutunga has since blasted the State over the incident saying it is mandated to provide safety for all citizens.
“Boniface Mwangi is my comrade-friend-son. He called me last night. He was wailing. So was his family. So, now our families are not safe. They’ve never been. A State that cannot guarantee the safety of both our lives and property is illegitimate,” he said.
