Friday, September 12, 2025 - Newly released CCTV footage has shed light on the final moments of lawyer Mathew Kyalo Mbobu before his fatal shooting along Magadi Road.
The footage shows Mbobu leaving his office at Town House in
Nairobi’s CBD on Tuesday, September 9th, at 5:11 PM, dressed in a
suit with a blue shirt and red tie, carrying a laptop bag.
At 5:14 PM, Mbobu was seen exiting the elevator, exchanging
farewells with security personnel, and walking toward his car parked on Kaunda
Street.
A man dressed in black, seen making a phone call near the
building, appeared to observe Mbobu as he passed.
Mbobu departed the CBD via Wabera Street and Parliament
Road, eventually joining Lang’ata and Magadi Roads.
He was gunned down by
an assailant on a motorcycle while his vehicle was stationary.
Government pathologist Dr. Johansen Oduor confirmed that
Mbobu sustained eight close-range gunshot wounds, leading to fatal bleeding.
Detectives from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations
(DCI) have since impounded two vehicles and questioned two senior officials who
met Mbobu earlier that day between 11 AM and 1:15 PM.
Investigators are analyzing phone records to determine
possible links and whether the vehicles were used to trail the lawyer.
Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen, speaking on
Thursday, said the investigation is progressing.
“Persons of interest have been identified and are being
interrogated. We remain hopeful that justice will prevail,” he stated.
The motive behind the assassination remains unclear as
investigations continue.
