PEPPER SPRAYED ODM DIRECTOR PHILIP ETALE IN SHOCK AFTER ATTACK
ODM communications director Philip Etale, who suffered a pepper-spray attack by unknown people on Monday evening, has been treated and discharged from Nairobi Hospital.
Etale said he was still in shock and with "tears rolling down my cheeks, not [because] I am not a man but because of thinking of the motive behind the attack.
In a post on his Facebook page, he said he had gone to have a meal at Ranalo restaurant at about 7pm.
"I was in the company of my friend Phelix G-cord and was later joined by my other friend Onyango Kevin. My old best friend Oliver Mugo also joined us.
"...as usual, I couldn’t end my stay at Ranalo without acknowledging greetings from the many people who know me. I love making friends. I had a good time with my friends and decided to leave at 10:10pm for my house to rest for the day."
But he was ambushed as he walked towards his car outside the I&M building.
"I started walking towards Stanbic bank slowly so I could catch up with Phelix who had already crossed the road. While in the middle of the road, a small saloon car drove by and I stopped to let it pass. I didn’t see the number of occupants.
"...All of a sudden, in the split of a second, some pulled out, sprayed some strong substance on my face...directly into my eyes...and the car sped off towards Total gas station on Kimathi Street."
Etale said he got confused.
Since he was in pain, his friends rushed him to the hospital.
"I have not taken anyone’s anything. I have not eaten what doesn’t belong to me. God has been so faithful to me. I don’t know the intention of the people in that Saloon car but God will reveal that to me some day. The doctor said it was highly concentrated pepper spray that people with bad intentions use on their targets. I feel pained. I feel harassed. I feel targeted. I feel so so bad. But it is well. I don’t want to speculate [so I] leave it to the Almighty God," he said," he wrote.
