Before the message was posted on social media,Philip had posted several messages on social media.Here is one of the messages:
“Hon. Charles Ong’ondo was not just a worthy competitor—he was my Member of Parliament.
I hope and trust that the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) will pursue all avenues to ensure that those responsible are brought to justice.
I urge my fellow constituents to remain calm and prayerful during this difficult time as we mourn the loss of our MP”
“Yesterday,Philip presented himself to Gilgil police station. He then posted this on social media:
The situation that we are in is very unfortunate.I want to leave the police to do their job,they summoned me to come and I did heed to that call.I want to tell the people of homabay county that the politics in that county has been turned to madness;it is not politics,it is thuggery. I saw the Governor Wanga pushing so much for me to be called here,she has been making calls to the police for me to be summoned”
As events unfold, Kenyans will know who killed the MP and who planned for his elimination.
