Deputy President William Ruto’s Airbus Helicopter H145, which was Kenya’s most expensive chopper has crashed in Turkana county killing his pilot Mario Magonga.
The wreckage of the chopper and his body found at 4am.
Kitutu Chache South MP Richard Onyonka, a relative of the deceased, calls for speedy investigations into the incident.
The chopper could operate even at night. Only the KDF and the Kenya Police have choppers with night vision capabilities. A new chopper costs about Ksh871 million but the cost can reach
Ksh 1 billion with customisations and branding.
