Kenya’s former Vice President and the current CORD’s
co-principal Kalonzo Musyoka’s chopper has been involved in an accident in
Tanzania.
On Thursday last week,
it was reported that a prominent Kenyan’s helicopter had crashed in the middle
of Selous Game Reserve in Tanzania killing all its four occupants. Amongst the
four was an outspoken parliamentary aspirant for the CCM party Mr. Deo
Filikunjombe.
It has now been
revealed that the chopper, a Eurocopter AS 350B3 Écureuil belonged to CORD
leader Kalonzo Musyoka. The former VP bought the chopper in 2013 for the
general elections then and has since been chartering it to clients. The plane
itself is quite pricey with the purchase and assembly cost rising to well over
300 million.
Investigations are now
still going on to establish the cause of the accident which saw the chopper
damaged beyond repair. Aside from the parliamentary aspirant, his campaign team
members and the pilot all lost their lives.
