There's more than meets the eye in Mariga's convoy attack

The convoy of the Jubilee candidate in the Kibra mini-poll, McDonald Mariga, was attacked a few days ago along Ngong Road. This incident was bound to raise queries. First, no one was injured, the only damage reported was a broken window on one of the vehicles.

They singled out ODM candidate Imran Okoth and Dagoretti North MP Simba Arati, who they said had mobilised goons to carry out the attack.
