Monday, August 31, 2026 - A 45-year-old woman identified as Doris Murei Nandi died after being shot seven times by a General Service Unit (GSU) officer within a camp in Eldoret.
The
officer, identified as Nathan Kirwa, was reportedly involved in an extra-marital
affair with the married woman.
According
to reports, the situation turned tragic after Kirwa found Doris drinking with another man at a
bar within the camp.
He shot
her several times before fleeing the scene.
The
officer was later arrested, and the firearm believed to have been used in the
incident was recovered.
He was
also found with an injury on his left forefinger, which investigators suspect
may have been sustained during the incident.
Following
his arrest, the officer was taken to Life Care Hospital, where he received
treatment and was discharged in fair condition.
He was
subsequently escorted to Naiberi Police Station, where he remained in custody
as investigations into the shooting and death continued.
Meanwhile,
Doris’s colleague at Neighbors in Action Kenya (NIAK), has taken to social
media to mourn her.
In an
emotional post, the colleague described Doris as a passionate community worker
who dedicated her time and energy to serving others.
“It is
with profound sadness and a heavy heart that we mourn the heartbreaking loss of
our colleague, friend, and fellow community member, Doris Murei Nandi.
“Doris was more than just a workmate. She was a vocal and passionate person who gave her time, energy, and voice to the community.
"Her presence, courage, and
dedication touched many lives, and her absence leaves a painful emptiness that
words cannot fully express.
“It is difficult to accept that someone we worked with, laughed with, and shared moments with is no longer with us.
"Her life was taken far too soon, leaving
behind grief, unanswered questions, and a community mourning one of its own.
“At
Neighbors in Action Kenya (NIAK), we extend our deepest condolences to Doris’s
family, loved ones, colleagues, friends, and everyone who knew and worked
alongside her.
“May we
remember Doris for the life she lived, the people she touched, and the voice
she gave to others.
“Rest
peacefully, Doris. Your voice may be silenced, but your impact will never be
forgotten.
“May justice prevail, and may her family and loved ones find strength during this devastating time,” he wrote.
