Andrew Kelvin Mwawasi was shot twice at close range by police on June 25, 2024, in Githurai while heading home from work. Teargas fired during anti-government protests triggered an asthma attack, leaving him struggling to breathe. As he tried to get to safety, officers opened fire. His brother, Mwadime Mzungu, recalled that Andrew had only stepped out to bring the family lunch. He was buried in Lang’ata with his coffin draped in the Kenyan flag, a quiet but powerful symbol of a life lost to police brutality.
