Another Female Gangster, 'Marsha Minaj', Gunned Down by Police in Nairobi

Police have shot dead another female suspected gangster in Nairobi, just two weeks after Claire Njoki Mwaniki aka ‘Nairobi Prettiest Gangster’ was gunned down by police.

Police say the gangster, nicknamed ‘Marsha Minaj’, was a best friend of Claire Mwaniki and police had been looking for a for a long time. She shot dead along with a male suspect on Saturday at a house in the Patanisho area of Nairobi when police stormed the house. Police attempted to make arrests but the house occupants started shooting at them, forcing officers to return fire, fatally shooting both occupants, said Nairobi County Police Commander Japhet Koome.

“On Sunday, police received information from the public about the location of the suspect, whom they have been complaining about, for some time.. [police] went to the house they were in, they found the two and attempted to arrest them, but they started shooting at the police officers through the door. The officers were forced to return fire and they managed to fatally injure the two and recovered a pistol, five rounds of ammunition and three spent cartridges from the suspects,” said Koome.

    God have mercy! Watoto wetu are being finished while young. You mean to say girls are more deadlier than men nowadays or is it when they're gunned down then they're said to have been the most dangerous? How were they firing back to more than one policemen with one recovered piston ???? Please don't finish our girls by shooting to kill! At least arrest a woman and nail them especially when this young to mould them. The current poverty in kenya is leading to all this. 10 years ago, nothing of this kind was ever heard.

    I do agree that poverty is all cause of these vices in the community/country, therefore the govt should cut the retirement age to 65yrs, period pple retire youth get jobs, the retired be given pension for their jobs done while they were serving, also create 24 hrs shift jobs in cities that creates jobs for 3 pple instead of 1 person, govt help youth

    Bad evil people and senseless gangsters come in all genders, shape and shades. The stupid clown blamed by these kinds points on Jubilee doesn't know what s/he is talking. Is the Jubillee government supposed to protect all law abiding people or to give ruthless gangsters a free reign to terrorize innocent men, women and children trying to live their lives in peace? Perhaps these gangster girls and their gangs should have terrorized this fool's family for him/her to appreciate how dangerous and reckless these evil minded thugs can be!
