The death of Albert is an indictment of a system that has abandoned its duty to protect and serve!!!
The death of Albert Omondi Ojwang in police custody is not merely a tragedy—it is an indictment of a system that has abandoned its duty to protect and serve. The National Police Service’s explanation—that a detained man fatally injured himself by hitting his head against a cell wall—strains credulity to the point of mockery. This is not accountability; it is an insult, a rehearsed script in a long-running farce of state violence and impunity.
The government’s failure to safeguard its citizens from those sworn to uphold the law is a dereliction of the highest order. Time and again, we are told that oversight mechanisms like IPOA will deliver justice, yet the bodies continue to pile up. The promise of investigations rings hollow when the same institutions tasked with probing these crimes are either complicit or crippled by political interference. Albert Omondi Ojwang did not die—he was killed, and his death follows a well-worn pattern of extrajudicial executions disguised as accidents or suicides.
This is not governance; it is terror masquerading as order. A state that cannot—or will not—restrain its own enforcers from murder has forfeited its legitimacy. The blood of Ojwang, like so many others, stains the hands of a system that views certain lives as disposable. If there is any justice left in this country, it will not be found in the empty assurances of the police, but in the collective fury of citizens who refuse to accept such barbarity as normal.
The time for outrage has passed. The time for reckoning is now. #communitydevelopment #affordablerentals #alex @MEMBAFLIX
