The strange circumstances surrounding the grisly death of a 47-year-old man in Senator Boni Khalwale’s home in Malinya, Ikolomani, are presently being looked into by detectives in Kakamega.
According to sources, the victim’s body was found by detectives on Sunday inside the senator’s bull stable. It appeared that the bull horns had caused multiple injuries to the victim.
The deceased, whose name was Kizito Moi, worked for Senator Khalwale and was responsible for the legislator’s renowned fighting bulls.
In an interview, Senator Khalwale described the occurrence as accidental.
He speculated that the deceased might have been drunk at the time of the occurrence, which might have caused one of the bulls—named “Inasio” in particular—to react aggressively.
Senator Khalwale posted a video in which he claimed to have speared the bull to death, following tradition.
Videos from the Sunday, January 28 event showed the senator surrounded by his relatives and brandishing a spear.
“My champion bull, Inasio, has attacked and instantly killed Kizito Moi Amukune. Moi has been the caretaker of my fighter bulls for over 20 years, In keeping with our culture, I have today speared bull Inasio to death.” Khalwale stated on X

Since then, the deceased’s body has been sent to the Kakamega County General Hospital mortuary while an autopsy is conducted.
