Activist Boniface Mwangi’s family home in Lukenya, Machakos County has been blown up.
According to Mwangi who shared his tribulations via social media, the home which was still under construction was bombed by state operatives linked to Machakos Governor Alfred Mutua.
“The state working for @DrAlfredMutua have bombed my family home in Lukenya, Machakos county and robbed my employees. They realised hashtags can’t scare me and they’re now using explosives. I still don’t fear because the Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want, He shall protect me,” said Mwangi.
I’m a resident of Machakos County. An hour ago, @DrAlfredMutua thugs have bombed my house (under construction), sank the foundation and robbed my workers. I can’t go there now for safety reasons. I know it’s Mutua because he is a molestor. & an abusive man. He won’t silence me! pic.twitter.com/x0NWwaRHCl

The “Unbounded” author claimed Dr Mutua was responsible for his loss as he is a “molester and abusive man”.
“He won’t silence me!” Mwangi exclaimed.
At the scene of incident, said the activist, were explosives used to sink the foundation and bullets.

The activist who has helped fight for the rights of Kenyans over the years wants the police to open an investigation into the matter and bring those responsible for the act to book.
“I’m hurting, but my spirit isn’t broken. Even this will pass… If the government doesn’t go after the culprits, they shall survive to hunt me and hurt others,” he said.
He added, “All l ask is an open and transparent investigation. If speaking the truth will get me killed, I’m ready to die.”
