He also mentioned that he had unknowingly supported Kiding'oi's family for some time, including helping his mother, sister, and providing regular financial assistance.The incident highlights the challenges of youth empowerment and the misuse of resources.
Kanyari's comments reflect broader concerns about crime and the responsibility of community leaders in guiding young people towards positive paths.
