Police are investigating Activist Boniface Mwangi’s claims that his house was bombed in Lukenya, Machakos County.

“Officers are on their way to the Lukenya property to check the claims,” National Police Service police spokesman Bruno Shioso said.

The attackers used improvised explosive devices in their mission.

Some of the unused IED cables were abandoned at the scene.

The workers say the attackers also shot at the scene but no injury was reported.

Pictures of the scene show the foundation of the structure was affected.

Mwangi now wants police to investigate the incident and arrest those behind the same.

He saw this as part of intimidation from those in power over his actions of ensuring justice in society.

“Four years ago they shot me. Yesterday they bombed my family home. Everything l do and say is protected by the constitution. They can take away my everything but l will never stop speaking truth to power. I need your solidarity, demand answers from the police,” he said.

“All l ask is an open and transparent investigation. If speaking the truth will get me killed, I’m ready to die.”
