Wiper Party leader Kalonzo Musyoka has raised the alarm over what he suggests could be a disturbing cover-up in the helicopter crash that tragically claimed the life of Chief of Defence Forces General Francis Ogolla.
Speaking before a visibly shaken crowd at the Wiper headquarters on Thursday, Kalonzo didn’t hold back. He questioned the official narrative provided by government agencies and demanded the urgent formation of a completely independent commission to investigate the harrowing incident.
“We’re not talking about just anyone — this was the CDF, the second-most protected person in the entire nation after the President,” Kalonzo thundered. “A helicopter carrying someone of that stature doesn’t just fall out of the sky without major questions being asked. This reeks of serious negligence or worse.”
Musyoka, visibly disturbed, said no excuse could justify how a high-ranking military officer was placed in harm’s way, bluntly calling it a legal and operational disaster.
“Bringing down a chopper with the CDF on board isn’t just an accident — it’s a breach of national security. We demand clarity. We demand the truth. An independent commission must be formed immediately.”
In an unexpected turn, Kalonzo also addressed whispers about his own involvement in the ongoing discussions around the crash.
“If the DCI wants to question me, let them do it officially. Let the summons come. I’ll show up — and I’ll ask them the real questions. Why was the CDF overseeing school inspections in the first place?”
Earlier this month, the Kenya Defence Forces claimed the crash was caused by engine failure, based on survivor accounts and technical assessments.
“The helicopter lost power midair, and the pilots tried a forced landing but lost control,” the report claimed, attributing the tragedy to mechanical malfunction.
But Kalonzo’s fiery response has cracked open a wave of speculation. With national security, accountability, and lives on the line.
