As Kenyans are still joining the family of the late Albert Ojwang, who was brutally tortured and later killed by suspected police officers at Central Police Station, fresh details have just emerged about the total amount of money Kenyans have raised for the family during this difficult time.
A few hours after Eric Omondi shared the M-Pesa number of Meshack, who is also the father of the late Albert Ojwang, it has been revealed that Kenyans had raised more than 500k by midnight.
“Let’s stand with Baba Albert. Albert left behind a three-year-old son—let’s ensure he never lacks anything. May he grow up knowing his father died a hero,” Omondi appealed in one of his posts on X (formerly Twitter).
Still you can send your contribution to the father of the late Albert Ojwang.
Furthermore, Kenyans have been sending condolences to the family during this difficult time, while others, including activists, are doing everything possible to make sure that the late Albert Ojwang receives justice.
Some Kenyans, including prominent leaders in the country, have been asking the Deputy Inspector General of Police, Eliud Lagat, to resign and give room for investigations.
This comes just after it was confirmed that he was a complainant in the case of the late Albert Ojwang.
Albert Ojwang was accused of publishing false information about the Deputy Inspector General of Police, and as a result, he was arrested and later passed away in the hands of police officers.
Later, police officers claimed that he had killed himself by hitting himself against the wall, but a postmortem conducted yesterday revealed that he was assaulted before he passed away.
