Daniel Mbolu Musyoka, the late Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) Returning Officer for Embakasi East who went missing on Thursday, August 11, was captured on CCTV conversing with a bodaboda rider.
Musyoka was on Church Road, Tassia, in Embakasi East constituency when the footage captured him conversing with the rider.
He was not alone; he was with a pillion passenger who also engaged with him before he left.
The footage obtained by police officers originated from a club in the constituency which detailed part of his final moments.
In addition, Musyoka was also reported to have left the tallying centre at around 9.00 am. His bodyguard had revealed that he had excused himself to make a phone call, only to never see him again.
Security guards further revealed that he used the back door to exit the tallying centre at the constituency and walk on foot. As per the footage, Musyoka was spotted outside the East African School of Aviation between 10.30 am and 10.39 am on the day he was reported missing.
The pillion passenger, who happened to be his colleague, had asked Musyoka where he was going, to which Musyoka responded by stating that he was going to buy some medicine.
Investigations further revealed that he was busy returning several WhatsApp calls, with further investigations revealing that there was a woman who approached him as he walked past the CCTV cameras. Musyoka was never seen again afterwards until his body was found at the Amboseli National Park on Monday, August 15.
Detectives are probing how he went to Church Road from the East African School of Aviation in a short time, given that the distance between the two was only 1.2 kilometres.
The police have since launched a manhunt for the rider and pillion passengers captured in the footage as detectives begin tracing his physical and digital footprints from his home to the tallying centre to Church Road and to Oloitoktok, where his body was found.
The Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) Noordin Haji had earlier given the Inspector General of the National Police Service (NPS), Hillary Mutyambai, seven days to table the final report of investigations into the murder
"You are directed to undertake comprehensive investigations into the matter and submit the resultant investigation file within seven days thereof," Haji wrote.
An autopsy done on Musyoka indicated that he was strangled to death. The exercise was conducted by a team of five pathologists sent to Oloitokitok Sub-County Hospital Mortuary to operate on his body before issuing the report.
However, it failed to provide a conclusive report on the cause of his death. The pathologists also carried to Nairobi some components for further forensic investigations.
Musyoka has been a national headline after IEBC chairperson, Wafula Chebukati, announced on Friday, August 12 that he had been reported missing.
Oloitokitok police boss, Kipruto Ruto revealed on Tuesday, August 16 that Musyoka's body was dumped in a place where wild animals were common, but he was not mauled. In addition, the body had fresh wounds, indicating that the murder took place before his body was discovered.
Musyoka's brother-in-law, Jackson Muimi and his sister Ann Mbolu revealed that Musyoka was a God-fearing man and that his death stemmed from a refusal to be bribed by his killers to manipulate numbers in the just-concluded elections.
