Three suspects linked with the murder of pastor David Sylvester Ngeiwa, who was killed in cold blood on April 7, 2023, in Bungoma County, Western Kenya, have been arrested.

Job Mosobin, Geoffrey Kimutai and Andrew Ngeiwa were arrested following the murder after they accosted Pastor David Ngeiwa as he closed his shop at around 9 pm on the fateful night.

The thugs, armed with an AK-47 assault riffle, shot the clergyman on the stomach before taking off with an unknown amount of money, leaving the body of the badly wounded man of God sprawled on the ground.

Efforts by well-wishers to save the cleric’s life turned futile after he succumbed to his injuries while receiving treatment at a nearby health facility.

A manhunt for the suspects was immediately launched, and through collaboration with members of the public, the three were arrested and placed in custody.

An operation to recover the firearm used in the attack is underway, while a motorbike used as the getaway means by the thugs has since been impounded.
