Akombe appears to have remained the lone voice openly agitating for justice for Msando. At the time of his death, Nasa leaders claimed Msando was silenced to pave way for the rigging of the 2017 polls. In her end of assignment report after fleeing Kenya in 2017, Akombe said she had been suspicious of the commission's results transmission system. Msando at that time said the electronic voting system, which was to decide the high-stakes elections, could not be hacked. It is still unclear how Msando ended up in the thicket after being spotted in Nairobi's CBD at around 1am.
