Lawyer Miguna Miguna has cast doubt on the ongoing military investigation into the tragic death of Chief of Defence Forces, General Francis Ogolla, and nine KDF soldiers. Following the fatal helicopter crash in Elgeyo Marakwet, Miguna has questioned the integrity of the investigative team and raised suspicions of foul play within the military ranks.

In a recent interview on Obinna’s show, Miguna expressed his apprehension, suggesting that General Ogolla’s death may not have been accidental. He posited scenarios where the general could have been targeted either by someone aboard the aircraft or by individuals within the military hierarchy itself.
“I don’t like the fact that the military is investigating it because what if he was killed by a fellow military man? What if his deputy killed him? What if other military people killed him?” Miguna voiced his concerns, emphasizing the need for a thorough and impartial investigation.
Miguna’s skepticism extends to the family’s conclusion that the incident was an accident. He argues that a mere dismissal of such suspicions could lead to overlooking crucial details that might prevent future tragedies caused by negligence or deliberate actions.

“A human being is not a dog. They cannot die just like that, and a general cannot just fall from the air,” Miguna remarked, highlighting the gravity of the situation. He urged for a professional and transparent inquiry into the circumstances surrounding General Ogolla’s untimely demise.
Despite President William Ruto’s assurances of a comprehensive investigation, Miguna’s concerns underscore the importance of independent scrutiny in cases involving high-ranking officials. His call for accountability and transparency resonates with the public’s demand for justice and the prevention of similar incidents in the future.
