A physical altercation has occurred between Nairobi County Assembly Robert Alai and former Kisumu MCA Jacktone Ogendo at Pinecone Hotel, owned by Kisumu Central MP Dr Joshua Oron.
Alai was reportedly headbutted by Ogendo, resulting in a small cut on his forehead. Alai was taken to the hospital for treatment, and the incident was reported to the Kisumu Central Sub-County Criminal Investigations Officer.
“Alai was confronted by former MCA for Nyalenda B, Hon. Jactone Ojwang Ogendo who headbutted the reportee on the forehead thus sustaining a slight cut on his forehead,” read the police report.
The motive behind the assault is believed to be related to Alai’s tweet about Ogendo’s family.
Alai had previously called for investigative agencies and Kisumu Governor Anyang Nyong’o to look into defilement allegations against Ogendo.
The police report confirmed that Alai was confronted by Ogendo, who headbutted him on the forehead, resulting in a slight cut.
The incident has been condemned by various Kenyan leaders, including Kisumu Governor Anyang Nyong’o, who called for a swift and fair investigation into the matter.
