Isiolo County Governor Abdi Guyo has broken his silence following a recent spate of tragic events in the county that have left residents mourning and leaders at odds.
In an official statement dated Wednesday, July 16, Guyo condemned recent incidents that led to the death of five family members and a separate event where a blogger was killed. The governor also called out political figures for exploiting the tragedies to advance personal agendas.
He condemned an incident that led to the death of Halima Ware, her three children, and a cousin in a fire believed to had been an arson attack by a woman suspected to had been in a love triangle with the victim.
According to police reports, Halima had previously filed complaints about threats to her life, raising questions about the effectiveness of local protection mechanisms.
The governor also spoke about the death of the well-known blogger Ismail Abdikadir, who perished in a hit-and-run accident involving a lorry.
Eyewitness accounts and police investigations confirmed the incident amid claims by some linking the death to the Governor’s administration without evidence.
“This heartbreaking incident has shaken us all. It is disheartening that such a painful moment is being misused for political gain,” the governor said.
“Despite clear facts, certain individuals have chosen to politicize his death, unfairly linking it to my administration, without a shred of evidence,” the governor continued.
