• Ikanga ward MCA Cyrus Musyoka found himself in trouble after he was aggressively attacked in Nairobi CBD
• The assailants, who reportedly wielded crude weapons, attacked him until he fell unconscious at the scene
• Kamukunji police officers arrived at the scene, rescued him, and swiftly took him to the hospital for treatment

Cyrus Musyoka, the Ikanga Ward Member of the County Assembly, narrowly survived an attack by unidentified assailants in Nairobi’s central business district.

Why was Cyrus Musyoka attacked?

Musyoka, widely known as Sonko, was aggressively confronted and severely beaten by a group of men in Nairobi, leaving him unconscious.

Channel 15 News reported that the MCA was involved in what is believed to be a case of mistaken identity.

Kamukunji police arrived at the scene and rescued Musyoka from the attackers, who continued to assault him even after he was unconscious.

He was later taken to Nairobi Hospital for medical treatment.

The assailants who brandished crude weapons remain at large, while police vow to apprehend them and determine the motive behind the attack.

Migori politician stabbed in gold mine clash

In a separate incident, Macalder Kanyarwanda MCA Felix Okwanyo was hospitalised with a stab wound following an alleged assault by unidentified youths from the Nyatike sub-county.

Dr Mayank Puri, Director of Lifecare Hospital Operations, and his colleague Dr Ngasi Cavin confirmed that they received the injured individuals, including MCA Okwanyo, who sustained injuries to his chest, head, and arms.

The incident involved locals, police, and a faction linked to a visiting politician clashing for hours.

This turmoil erupted after MCA Okwanyo was reportedly beaten and stabbed over the contentious ‘Copper Hill’ gold mining site.

Two police officers sustained severe head injuries and were rushed to the same hospital. Another individual, identified as Julian Adongo, also suffered injuries from a stray bullet but is currently stable after treatment.

During the unrest, a politician's vehicle was destroyed by fire, while police used teargas to disperse the crowd.

In an exclusive interview with TUKO.co.ke, Okwanyo called on the National Police Service to urgently restore order and ensure the safety of residents.
