When he last spoke to his father, Fred Wanyonyi, the security guard who was shot dead at Stima Plaza during the June 25 protests, promised his dad that he would buy him a piece of land this month.
But in a cruel twist, 65-year-old Robert Kwambo has been left mourning the abrupt death of his son.
It is believed the killer shot was fired by one of the police officers deployed to quell the demonstrations. "My son had promised to buy me a piece of land this July, and construct for me a small house, but here I am…left stranded.
They brought me a corpse in July instead," mourned Kwambo on Thursday.
