The senator confirmed the attack through his communication team, which reported that the assailants were aggressive and caused significant harm.
Osotsi’s colleague, Sifuna, was quick to react, sharing the news with the public and offering his support. “I have spoken to Senator Godfrey Osotsi’s team and confirmed that he was viciously attacked and injured in Kisumu earlier today when he went to get a haircut,” Sifuna stated.
His comments have sparked outrage among his supporters, with many condemning the attack as an unprovoked act of violence.
Details surrounding the assailants’ motives remain unclear, but the attack has drawn attention to security concerns in the region.
Local authorities have reportedly launched an investigation to identify the perpetrators and bring them to justice.
As news of the attack spreads, many Kenyans are calling for a thorough inquiry into the incident, with some urging the government to increase security measures to protect leaders from such violent acts.
Senator Osotsi’s team has yet to provide further updates on his condition, but sources close to the senator have expressed optimism about his recovery.
The incident also raises questions about the safety of political figures, particularly those from opposition parties, as tensions continue to mount in the lead-up to upcoming political events.
