Chaos as Goons Attack Kisii Woman Rep Donya Toto at Burial
During a burial ceremony in Ogembo, Kisii, on Wednesday evening, a charged mob targeted the convoy of Kisii Woman Representative, Donya Toto.
Despite escaping unharmed, the government (GK) van transporting staff was not as fortunate, suffering vandalism at the hands of the unruly crowd.Â
One female staff member sustained a neck injury when a stone shattered the rear screen of the van.
The attack occurred as Toto attended the burial of local contractor Daniel Ondari in Bomachoge Chache.Â
The hostility erupted when South Mugirango MP Sylvanus Osoro’s donation to the family triggered a reaction from inebriated troublemakers who began pelting the convoy.
