Former IEBC Commissioner Roselyn Akombe Calls for Inquest into Chris Msando's Death

Former Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) commissioner Dr. Roselyn Akombe has called for an inquest into the murder of Chris Msando.

Taking to social media, Akombe has urged the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) to order an inquest into the killing of Msando, who was IEBC's director in charge of ICT at the time of his death.

Akombe has promised to avail herself for questioning should the DCI call for an inquiry into Msando's murder.

“Looking forward to the DCI requesting a public inquest into the brutal torture and murder of my IEBC colleague Chris Msando and Ms. Ngumbu. I confirm my availability to be interviewed under oath,” she says in a tweet.

Akombe was reacting to news that DCI George Kinoti has ordered Nyeri Chief Magistrate to conduct a public inquest into the death of Nyeri Governor Wahome Gakuru, who lost his life after a tragic road crash along Nyeri-Nairobi highway in November last year.

Msando was brutally murdered and his body dumped in a thicket in Kikuyu area, Kiambu County days to August 8th,2017 general election.

Akombe resigned from the commission a week to October 26th repeat presidential election and fled to the United States citing death threats among other reasons.

Ms. Roselyn Akombe why are you jeopardizing your career by engaging yourself in Kenyan politics again. Can you just disappear!!!. Your current terms of employment requires you to stay out of politics. If you cannot control yourself and don't want to stick to those terms know that we are waiting for you in the social media arena. We have not forgiven you nor forgot the treason you committed during last year's general election. Our claws are more sharpened than ever. Come baby Come!!!!

Akombe, this is what buyer's remorse is all about. As you can see, man proposes, God dispossess. Raila paid you off and shipped you abroad to scatter our elections, destroy the country and force himself into the presidency. Now, you are shocked that the same Raila eats, drinks and makes merry with Uhuru that you were going to depose. when you think about your predicament and betrayal, you think Msando not because you care about him, but rather because you realize that just like him you're dead as far as Kenyans are concerned. When Rao paid off you didn't care about our people and country. Thousands could have died if IEBC was defunct and elections failed, which was your plan - to have masses of people match to the state House and carry out a people's coup. But God loves Kenya so much that your political prostitution and Raila's demonic hunger for power could not touch our blessed Republic. Is it not written: God will turn your foes into friends and make them do your bidding for you.

Well said. She needs to stay on her day job and raise her son in New Jersey. Kenyan politics is not for the naive wannabe. Even I would never venture in that world. If she loves Kenya so much, there are ways to help the real mwananchi that is suffering instead of god digging into politics.

Akombe it will be wise if you just shut the hell up and mind your own business.You never even sent condolences to Msando's wife instead you ran away to "Majuu"....that's not true patriotism. It's funny how you are saying you want to testify under oath?? What are u really trying to tell us? U need to see psychiatrist to manage your psychotic breakouts. How about you get in touch with former KITUTU CHACHE SOUTH MP to help u with what u may need

Too little too late. The foxes are eating with the dogs and Kayotes peacefully. Hanene though kwani wewe ndio wale mungiki wa US. How do you carry out threats like that na uko diaspora? Hizo claws tutazikata kata. Nkt peleka ushamba mbali! Who the hell do you think you are?

Roselyn Akombe is what one would describe as Kenya's academic trash. Millions of shillings of taxpayers money was spent to foot her education through public schools but her repayment to the system has been betrayal. This woman committed treasonable acts by planning with Maraga, Orengo, Kalonzo, Raila and others to plunge Kenya into a civil war. Thanks God her evil plan didn't work. Who can forgive her for that? Of all prominent Kenyans abroad such Dr. Miguna Miguna, Professor Makau Mutua, Terry Atieno, Lucy Gichuhi, Professor Gikandi, Dr. Koni Hanene, Alex kaundu, and Lupita Nyongo to mention a few she is the only one that that has betrayed her country. She should shut her mouth

Koni Hanene: Mwanamume mwenye akili timamu hamtishi mwanamke kama unavyomfanyia Dada Akombe. Wewe ni mwanamume wa aina gani?

This clearly shows that she was not qualified to be an IEBC commissioner. She has evidence on murder, and she has not talked to DCI, she's giving conditions to give her testimony? She's as guilty as those who committed the crime.
