A man who witnessed the last moments of Brian Chira is speaking out. In an interview with Presenter Ali, the man said how he arrived outside a popular club around 2:53 am.
The man had arrived on a boda boda and pleaded for the rider to wait if he could help take Brian home as they were headed to a similar destination.
"So kufika hivi nilikuta Brian amefukuzwa kutoka hio club juu walikuwa wanataka kufunga. So kumwangalia hivi nikajua huyu ni Brian.
Na alukuwea amelewa sana. Alikuwa chini na anatolewa. Alikuwa chini na alikuwa amelewa. So kumuona nikamwita, 'Brian!' Akaitika. So akaniambia nisaidie."
The man told the guards at the establishment that he knew Brian after they sought assurance,
"Brian akasema nisaidie. Masoldier wakasema kama unamjua unaweza ukamsaidia."
Brian's reportedly inebriated state was worrying to the man who said,
"I was going in a different direction, so I wanted to leave him there but the way he was drunk, akasema naomba unisongee, nikamsongea kwa bike akaingia nyuma yangu. Tukaenda tukafika Gacharage Junction, so nilikuwa nataka ku divert niende nyumbani.
Brian alikuwa anaenda kwa different direction, so nilikuwa nataka kumwacha hapo lakini venye alikuwa mlevi tena akasema naomba mnisongeshe mnifikishe mahali fulani."
"So after amesonga tukafika mahali alituambia akashuka tu pikipiki and then kumuitisha fare akaanza tu kukimbia. Before asonge two steps mbele ndio gari ilitokea ikampiga."
According to police who spoke to The Star Chira died as a result of an accident he was involved in, in the Karuri area.
