Main Story:
Nelson Havi, the former head of the Law Society of Kenya (LSK), has publicly urged for the arrest of police spokesperson Muchiri Nyaga. This comes after allegations surfaced that Nyaga is attempting to suppress the truth behind the death of blogger Albert Ojwang.
Ojwang was reportedly found dead under circumstances that have sparked public outcry, with suspicions of foul play involving police officers. While details around the incident remain unclear, Havi claims that the police response — led by Nyaga — is aimed at shielding those responsible.
According to Havi, the police communication on the matter is suspiciously vague and appears designed to deflect blame rather than reveal facts. He accuses Nyaga of being central to this alleged misinformation campaign and insists that he must be held accountable to ensure justice is served.
The lawyer emphasized that impunity within the police force must be confronted head-on, especially when it involves the loss of a civilian’s life under unclear circumstances.
Havi’s demands have reignited conversations on police accountability and the protection of journalists and content creators. The case has attracted widespread attention online, with many echoing his calls for transparency and justice for Ojwang
When the protectors of truth become its silencing force, who then will stand for justice?
