Public Figures Face Threats & Confrontations; IPOA Warns of Attacks on Police - October 2025

CNN International correspondent Larry Madowo is taking legal action against George Oduor, the driver of Kibra MP Peter Orero, following a viral road rage incident. The confrontation occurred after Madowo blocked the MP’s vehicle from driving on the wrong side of the road. Kibra MP Peter Orero has since publicly apologized after his driver was fined for the incident. In a separate event, activist Boniface Mwangi alleges his life is in danger after discovering a spent bullet casing in his bag. These incidents come as The Independent Policing Oversight Authority (IPOA) expressed serious concerns over a surge in attacks against Kenya's National Police Service. IPOA warned this trend threatens public safety and ongoing policing reforms, citing incidents like the fatal attack of an officer near State House, Nairobi.
