Politician David Morara Kebaso is currently facing potential arrest in connection with an alleged assault incident that took place on October 21, 2026, in Kijauri, Nyamira County. The alleged victim, John Masita Omariba, reported the assault to the police at Matutu Police Station on the same day. According to the complainant, Morara, who was accompanied by several individuals, confronted him at a petrol station in Borabu Constituency, accusing him of undermining him politically and allegedly punching him.
The Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP) has directed the investigating officer to collect statements from individuals who were with Morara during the incident, including his maternal uncle, Charles Kebaso, his driver, Wycliffe Omari, and campaign team members. Morara and his uncle obtained anticipatory bail on October 27, 2026, preventing their arrest at the time.
The DPP's recent directive indicates further investigative steps in the case, with statements from Morara's associates expected to inform the next course of action.
