When Lucy Wanjiru left the country in 2018, he two sons and only children were there elated to see their mother fly out to the United Kingdom for greener pastures.

But when she returned to the country this morning for the first time since then, she was welcomed by gloomy faces, not those of his sons, but of dejected relatives.

Her babies are no more and she is here to bury them.

Shortly after landing at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) and seeing sad faces waiting for her, she broke down to tears and wept uncontrollably.

“Oh God, why did this happen! My children…” she cried.

The brokenhearted mother then collapsed. She was stabilised a few minutes later.

Wanjiru’s sons, Victor Mwangi and Fredrick Mureithi were murdered on Sunday last week by herders in Kitengela, Kajiado County, in a case of mistaken identity. The brother’s two friends, Mike George, and Nicholas Musa were also lynched.

The four young men had an eventful day celebrating the birthday of one of them.

However, on their way home, one of the sports bikes they were using developed a mechanical problem. They stopped at the Kisanju area at around 6 pm to try and repair it.

Tragically, a resident saw their parked bikes and raised the alarm thinking they were cattle rustlers.

Lynching 

Herders arrived at the scene immediately and without listening to them, they speared the quartet to death before torching the expensive motorcycles.

The attackers dumped their bodies at a riverbank.

Police picked the remains of the four later that night and ferried them at City Mortuary, where they were booked as unidentified.

Families of the four are asking the police to bring the killers to book.

As of this evening, no suspect had been arrested, but detectives say they are still investigating the catastrophic incident.

Mwangi and his brother Muriithi will be laid to rest on Friday at the family’s rural home in Nyandarua.
