The primary suspect in the savage murder of Eric Maigo, the acting finance director at Nairobi Hospital, Anne Adhiambo Akinyi, is prepared to enter a guilty plea. This came to light on Wednesday after an age and mental evaluation at the Mathare Hospital in Nairobi determined that, in contrast to prior reports that suggested she might have been a kid, she is fully qualified to stand trial.

On September 27, Adhiambo appeared before the court with a variety of motions. The court granted the prosecution 21 days to hold Adhiambo in custody while the investigation was ongoing. On the morning of October 15, at Nairobi’s Jamhuri Street, a figure thought to be Adhiambo was seen on surveillance footage leaving the scene of Maigo’s murder.

After bystanders alerted the police to his movements, she was detained in the Olympic district on Kibra Street. The body of Maigo, who had 25 stab wounds, was discovered in Adhiambo’s residence. The suspect is scheduled to appear in court on October 28.

The main suspect in the murder of Nairobi Hospital Acting Finance Director Eric Maigo, a minor believed to be between 15 and 17 years old, was arrested on Tuesday night in Kibera slums, Nairobi.

The suspect has been on the run since last week Thursday, and was hiding at a friend’s house in the Bombolulu area when detectives arrived at about 8 pm.

The teenager is believed to have stabbed Maigo 25 times, and the motive for the murder is still unknown.

The suspect is currently detained at the Muthaiga Police Station awaiting transfer to Kilimani Police Station, where she will be arraigned on Wednesday.

Police are also conducting an analysis of Maigo’s lifestyle as part of their probe.

A Nairobi court released a suspect, Cynthia Lusega Andalo, in the murder case of Nairobi Hospital Finance Officer Eric Maigo on Monday morning. The prosecution told the court that they have no evidence to charge or hold Andalo in custody.

“After investigations, we forwarded the file to the ODPP and there was no sufficient evidence to charge the respondent herein,” the court was told.

The prosecution had applied for Andalo to be detained for five days to conclude investigations last week.

The miscellaneous file was closed and Andalo was set free.

Maigo was found with 25 stab wounds at his Woodley Estate residence in Nairobi last week. He will be buried on September 29 at his Keumbu home, in Kisii.

Police are appealing for information on a woman suspected of murdering Nairobi Hospital finance director Eric Maigo. Maigo was killed on September 15, 2023, at his house in Woodley, Nairobi.

Detectives have released images of the woman, who was captured leaving the crime scene. They believe she may have been involved in the murder before escaping through the back door.

Two blood-stained knives believed to have been the murder weapons were recovered from the scene of the crime.

Police are asking the public to volunteer any information that may lead to the suspect’s arrest.
