The slain Mt Elgon politician Nathan Wasama was leading a cleansing ritual that involved cutting down two significant fig trees in Mt Elgon and Trans-Nzoia, which elders blamed for misfortune affecting the Sabaot and Bukusu communities.
The ceremony had faced strong opposition over the past year from a senior politician in Mt Elgon because of its perceived political significance.
Unknown assailants shot Wasama on Thursday evening outside his house as he stepped out of the bathroom at around 7pm.
