Why LGBTQ Activist Edwin Chiloba was Killed

Investigations into the murder of LGBTQ activist and model Edwin Chiloba take a new twist after the prime suspect, Jackton Odhiambo, confessed to killing the model over claims that he cheated on him.

The self-confessed suspect went on to say that he killed Chiloba as retaliation for betraying him in their relationship.

The couple had been living together for a year, and according to the residential's caretaker, Chiloba had spent three years alone at the house until Jackton joined him in 2022.

Edwin Chiloba and Jackton Odhiambo, lived together as a couple in a romantic relationship.

According to Langas OCPD John Odhiambo, Jackton Odhiambo carried out the murder with the assistance of two associates who are yet to be arrested.

Chiloba's caretaker Alex Nyamwea informed the police that Jackton called him on January 4th using Chiloba's phone and informed him that he would be leaving the property immediately.

On January 1, 2023, Odhiambo and Chiloba were seen having fun at a popular club on the outskirts of Eldoret town as they ushered in the New Year.

Speaking exclusively to Look Up TV Digital, One of the neighbors said he heard noises and a fight in the house where Chiloba and Jackton lived. A scream followed and then total silence on that same night Chiloba was seen alive.

The residential area's caretaker claims that Jackton Odhiambo was seen carrying the identical metallic box that contained the model's body. The package was reportedly hauled down the stairs, according to the neighbors. After the box was found, the keeper dialed the police, who took a statement.
