Police on Monday, January 29, 2024, detained four Nigerians in connection to the death of a 25-year-old man in the Riruta area, Nairobi, after he allegedly jumped from the fifth floor of their balcony.

The victim, identified as Charles Waga Otieno, a budding rapper, who worked at a nearby car wash, is said to have been delivering a carpet to the individuals when the incident happened at Corner Heights Apartments, Naivasha Road, Nairobi News reported.

“A car wash guy has jumped from the 5th floor, but he had come to deliver a carpet to some Nigerians on the 7th floor, room 56,” a neighbour said.

However, according to the Nigerians, Otieno was reportedly paid Sh400 for the task. Later, they said that the victim was heard screaming, undressing, and ultimately leaping from the fifth floor to the ground floor, sustaining severe head injuries.

Law enforcement officers responding to the scene found his mobile phone, earring, and cap on the trail from house 56, where he delivered the carpet to the Nigerians.

Officers at the scene were left wondering why the victim did not have his trousers on when he apparently fell.

“The victim was only found with his t-shirt on and did not have his pants,” an officer at the scene said.

Another neighbour said that the Nigerians were unbothered about the incident.

Police said a tour of the apartments’ balcony reveals that the railings are too high for some to just jump the way the suspects were describing how the incident happened.

Emergency services rushed him to Coptic Hospital, where he was declared dead upon arrival.

The four Nigerian nationals are being held at Satellite Police Station pending ongoing investigations by the police, who are treating the case as a murder.

The police said the motive behind the victim’s decision to jump to his death while naked remains unclear. The body has been transferred to the mortuary, awaiting an autopsy.
