Unyc Haitz wrote: “On February 17, Njeri sought the services of a motorbike and as they moved along Kanyanyaini, Mpeketoni, the came across a policeman by the name Paul Tanui. He flagged the rider down, expecting his usual KSh 50 bribe but the rider ignored him.

“Tanui then threw his gun at the rider but missed him and hit Njeri’s head. She fell off the bike and was left unconscious on the road as the rider sped off. She has since been admitted at Pandya Hospital ICU."

Njeri was hospitalized in 2015 with serious head injuries.

When the incident was reported to the national police service chairman, Johnstone Kavuludi, it was discovered that Tanui was transferred stations because of security reasons.

He was moved from Mpeketoni to Lamu West to Kizingitini and Lamu East police stations the entire while.

Njeri underwent three surgeries that cost about KSh 2 million before succumbing on Sunday, March 5. She was the third born child of Mariam Njeru and the late Njuguna. She had aspirations of joining university this year to pursue education and a career in law.

Three costly head surgeries later, she succumbed to her injuries on Sunday, March 5.

Haitz added that: “She worked as security at a law firm in Mpeketoni and now she is gone for good. Her cry for justice is too loud for you and I to ignore. Who will pay for her cruel death? Who will wipe her mother’s tears? Individually we may not be as powerful but together, our voiced may be the ultimate push for justice."

Demands were made for information to be provided on why Tanui was transferred and not arrested.

Kenyans flooded social media to call out the police service for taking an innocent Kenyan’s life.

NPS chief Johnstone Kavuludi said the officer in question was transferred for security reasons.

Robert Kosgei wrote: “So sad. The innocent blood will haunt them. RIP."

Kwamboka Emmah wrote: “The government is unfair, its because of corruption that Margaret is gone too soon. Do something please."

Amicus Curiae: “Tanui, God created us with a purpose....you will be answerable to Him..R.I.P.”

RIP!
