Nuru Okanga Speaks from Hospital After Brutal Attack by Unknown People

ODM activist and outspoken supporter of the late Raila Odinga, Nuru Okanga, has broken his silence after being attacked by unidentified individuals while heading home.

Okanga confirmed that he was receiving medical attention in hospital after the incident, which left him with visible injuries to his face.

In a Facebook post on Sunday, November 15, the political commentator disclosed that he had been assaulted by people whose identities he did not know.

He accompanied his announcement with photographs showing his condition following the attack.

Some of the pictures showed Okanga bleeding, while others captured him after receiving initial medical treatment. One photograph showed a large bandage covering part of his face near the eye, with noticeable swelling around the injured area.

“I have been attacked by unknown people on my way home. I am currently in hospital,” he wrote.

However, Okanga did not reveal where the incident happened or provide details about the number of people involved.

He also did not disclose what could have motivated the attack or whether he had reported the matter to the police.

Despite the injuries, the ODM supporter maintained that the incident would not stop him from pursuing his activities.

In a strongly worded message, Okanga suggested that those behind the assault might have intended to silence him but insisted that he would not be intimidated.

“They may have wanted to silence me, but God is my protector. I thank Him for the gift of life. My faith remains unshaken, my spirit is strong, and my journey continues,” he stated.

He further quoted Isaiah 54:17 from the Bible, declaring that no weapon formed against him would prosper.

Okanga concluded his message by reaffirming his determination to continue despite the ordeal.

“We shall not be intimidated, we shall not surrender. God is not finished with me yet!” he declared.

He signed off with the political rallying phrase “ALUTA CONTINUA! WANTAM!” while accompanying his statement with a raised-fist emoji.
