Paul Kobia Allegedly Caught Bragging How He Killed Fidel Odinga. Here Are The Details

Fidel Odinga passed away in very unclear circumstances on Sunday and the mystery surrounding his demise is yet to be unraveled after pathologists who conducted a post-mortem on his remains failed to establish the exact cause of the opposition leader, Raila Odinga’s son’s death.

Even before Fidel is laid to rest, allegations and accusations are already rife in the air as opposing parties trade them at will.

The latest accusations have been made by a blog believed to be owned by blogger Robert Alai who has accused one Paul Kobia of being heard bragging how he killed Fidel Odinga.

The blog alleges that Paul Kobia, who at some time was accosted by Raila’s security men when he tried reaching to the former premier, was heard bragging in some restaurant that he organized the killing of Fidel Odinga.

The blog further alleges that Kobia enjoys State security and therefore nothing is likely to be done to him even as he goes around bragging how he killed Fidel.

However, as we write this article, we understand that Paul Kobia, the man who threatened to kill Raila in September last year, has been arrested over the allegations.

 “Paul Kobia was early this week heard bragging to some patrons and the owner of Buffet Park, Mr Muya that he killed Hon Raila Odinga’s son, Fidel Odinga. In one of the most stupid showmanship, the thug and runaway killer who has connections right inside State House confessed to the patrons that he killed Fidel because he organised his assault. The confessions were heard by friends of Fidel who have revealed this to security officers. Kobia made the confession on Monday night at Buffet park. The security officers have refused to act because Paul Kobia enjoys State House protection. He moves around in a convoy of cars including police chase cars. Paul Kobia is also always armed with weapons including shotguns and pistols. It is not clear why Paul Kobia enjoys such kind of state protection. He is known to be a friend of Nairobi Senator Mike Sonko who has constantly refuted this saying that he is not a friend of Kobia. Friends of Raila are now demanding that Kobia be arrested.”- Kahawa Tungu

These latest developments are likely to turn things around.

Meanwhile, Fidel will be laid to rest on Saturday at his father’s home in Bondo.
