Matungu killings blot on the police, IG should take action

Kakamega Police Commandant Wilkister Vera and Matungu lawmaker Justus Murunga in a security meeting held at Matungu over the recent killings.

The wave of killings in Matungu in Mumias sub-county, Kakamega County, continues unabated weeks later. Families continue to lose their loved ones in circumstances they cannot explain.

Early this year, six security guards were murdered at Kilingili market on the Kakamega-Vihiga counties border. Last week, a security guard in Maraba Estate on the outskirts of Kakamega town was killed by thugs.
