Erastus Odhiambo gets 20 years for murdering Linda Irungu

Nairobi City businessman Erastus Ngura Odhiambo, alias Baba Billy, has been sentenced to 20 years in prison for murdering his girlfriend Linda Wanjiku Irungu four years ago.

Mr Odhiambo, a bar owner, was last Friday found guilty of shooting dead the 27-year-old lawyer in the wee hours of December 11, 2014 in Buru Buru Phase 5 in Nairobi.

Justice Stellah Mutuku said Odhiambo committed the offence after visiting Irungu’s house thrice on the fateful night after she declined to join him for a night out.

The judge said when Odhiambo found Ms Irungu trying to drive out of her compound, he dragged her out of the car then shot her after a struggle as two guards watched.
