Night of Chaos in Nakuru
An ordinary night out in Nakuru turned chaotic for former Kakamega Senator Cleophas Malala, after an incident at a popular club escalated into violence. Malala, who is also the UDA Secretary-General, was allegedly attacked by unidentified individuals during a confrontation that left his vehicle vandalized.
Club Tension Turns Ugly
Eyewitnesses say Malala had just stepped into the venue when a deejay announced his presence. What followed was a tense atmosphere as a section of revelers began chanting anti-government slogans, causing friction among patrons. Amid the confusion, Malala was reportedly assaulted, and his Toyota Land Cruiser was badly damaged outside the club.
Police Step In
The vehicle was later towed to Nakuru Central Police Station, where officers have opened a probe into the incident. While no suspects have been apprehended, authorities confirmed that they are reviewing security footage and will question the club’s management.
Motive Still Unknown
The intention behind the attack remains unclear, and investigators are not ruling out any possibilities. So far, Malala has not made any public statement concerning the event, and it’s unclear whether he sustained any injuries.
As police dig deeper into what sparked the attack, questions linger about whether the event was spontaneous or politically motivated. Either way, it marks yet another disturbing moment in Kenya’s heated political environment.
