Linda Mwananchi supporter dies after assault at Kisii rally

Leaders of the movement allege that attackers, some reportedly supported by police, injured at least 20 people during the incident in the Keumbu area on the Kisii-Keroka Highway. Osiemo, known as Mapinduzi, was reportedly struck on the head and then attacked with sticks after falling from a campaign vehicle. Linda Mwananchi leaders condemned the violence, questioned police involvement, and demanded accountability.

Kitutu Masaba MP Clive Gesairo criticized the police, stating they were "part and parcel of what took place." Another leader emphasized that such incidents should not occur in modern society. The National Police Service has summoned Nyaribari Chache MP Zaheer Jhanda to the Kisii County DCI office as investigations into the violent chaos continue.
