A member of the Nairobi County Assembly was shot and injured early Wednesday by a gunman on a motorcycle.
Korogocho MCA Maxwell Ochieng’ Ochar was shot at 6.10am as he waited for his wife in his private car at a parking lot in Riverside Estate.
Starehe Deputy OCPD Abdikadir Ahmed said the gunman may have been waiting at the parking lot.
“He shot the MCA once before escaping on a motorcycle, whose number plate was not taken. The MCA suffered a bullet wound in his right hand” Mr Ahmed said.
He said police are yet to establish the motive of the attack but had begun investigations.
