Man Beaten In Homa Bay After Being Asked Why He Supports Sifuna, Vows To Keep Preaching The Message

A man in Homa Bay was assaulted for supporting Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna according to a video that has drawn significant online attention. The video was shared by Plugtvkenya.

In the clip the man wearing a black cap with Sifuna branding recounts the incident. He said he was walking when he heard someone mention broad based. The individual then approached him and demanded to know why he was supporting Sifuna in Homa Bay.

The man said the confrontation escalated into an assault. Despite the attack he stated that he remains undeterred. He vowed to continue preaching the message of Sifuna even when faced with provocation or hostility.

The video was posted on the Facebook page of Plugtvkenya with a caption that calls the incident a crime of supporting Sifuna. It shows the victim speaking outdoors near buildings. It quickly gained traction and collected thousands of views and likes and comments within hours. The clip has since been widely shared.

Homa Bay has been a flashpoint for political tension involving the Linda Mwananchi movement led by Sifuna. Supporters of the movement have previously reported hostility and violence during activities in the county. This reflects deeper rivalries within opposition politics and local power dynamics.

The latest incident involves an ordinary supporter targeted over a branded cap and public expression of support. It shows the personal risks some people face when openly aligning with Sifuna in certain areas of Nyanza.

The resolve of the man to keep promoting the message underscores the determination among sections of Linda Mwananchi supporters amid ongoing political competition ahead of 2027.

Police response and further details on the attackers have not been publicly confirmed in this case. The video continues to circulate.
