Njaro Wairatu, the father of popular Kikuyu singer Edward Irungu popularly known as Wanjoro Junior, has said he will not bury his son until police prove he was killed and did not commit suicide as reported.
Wairatu said that burying his son will be like covering up the evidence. He insisted that police stopped the investigation after his son’s body was found in Masinga Dam.
He further accused the police of ignoring his plea because he was living in poverty.
“Officers from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) have never even asked any member of the family to record a statement on the matter. Is that how things are done?” said Wairatu.

It has also emerged that he owed a certain group a total of ksh750,000.
