The man has been identified as 30-Year-Old Daniel Wekesa from Bungoma County.
Daniel, who currently resides in Mlolongo, was seen shouting while standing on his seat.
After his arrest, he revealed that he was not shouting at Gideon Moi, but rather, he had a message for President Uhuru Kenyatta.
Identify of Nyayo Stadium heckler who unfruitfully attempted to interrupt Gideon Moi’s tribute to his late father revealed: What an unfortunate hill he chose to die on. A Nairobi talboid quotes an anonymous source at Lang’ata Police Station who revealed that it took a few squirms and groans to get to the bottom of the matter.
Upon interrogation by police officers, the accused said that he wanted to request the president to give him a job.
However, Daniel’s alleged cry for employment fell on deaf ears as police officers took him to Langata Police station for further interrogation.
