UASIN GISHU: The late Edwin Chebutie, the assistant chief of Kamobo sub-location, had a busy day last Wednesday and needed to relax, and so did village elder and his close friend Christopher Kirwa. They decided to unwind at a local pub in the evening, unaware that they had walked straight into a death trap.
“They went to Sizzlers Pub and shared three bottles of Meakins liquor. As the evening progressed, the two went home. Later, both complained of stomachache and were rushed to Kapsabet Hospital,” said Kamobo Chief Benjamin Lulei.
