Otieno, 23, had just left Naivas Supermarket in the company of a woman and they were strolling to his one-bedroom apartment in Mihang’o, Nairobi, when he received a call.

“That day he was dressed in shorts and in the company of a woman. He did not board a motorbike even though he loved doing it,” a man, who was amongst the last to see him alive, told Nation.

So long was the phone call, that it even attracted the attention of many people who were within the vicinity.

One of the people who eavesdropped on the conversation said that the victim kept on saying “wewe kuja tu kwangu niko area (come to my house, I’m around).”

He was shot while holding on to mason who was working at a nearby site. Otieno fell on the ground and the mason escaped unhurt.

“The gunmen quickly followed Otieno to where he was lying and continued shooting at him. Everyone was shocked as the gunshots rent the air,” said another man who witnessed the incident. 

In the video, the front doors of the white land cruiser are flung open and some activities from three men which were not captured clearly were going on.

This is after some of the gunmen raced after the woman who was with Otieno, captured her and ordered that she keeps quiet as she was screaming attracting the attention of more people.

The Nation has established that after they got hold of her, they forcefully bundled her into the Land Cruiser.

As this was going on, two of the gunmen were standing a few metres from where Otieno was lying and continued pumping more bullets into his body.

At this moment, one of the three men from the Land Cruiser walked and joined those who were spraying Otieno with bullets while issuing some instructions.

“Before the gunmen went away, one of the them shot Otieno in the eyes,” added a witness.

Before they drove off, the gunmen asked two men, who were near the scene of the shooting as it happened, to surrender their mobile phones.

They took the gadgets and sprayed them with bullets before leaving the scene.

A witness told Nation that the two vehicles immediately left and moments later curious onlookers rushed to see what was happening.

The body of the politician was found in the Kijabe forest alongside that of the “Kasarani three” – Frank Obegi, Elijah Omeke and Moses Nyachae.

“I don’t even want to talk about what happened and what I saw. All I want is peace. I come from the border where shooting takes place always daily but I’ve never seen such an ugly scene,” said another witness.

Later, police officers went to the scene, picked the Otieno’s body and took it to the City Mortuary where he was booked in as unidentified male.    BY DAILY  NATION
