Local media report that according to Imenti North police boss Tom Odero, David Mwangi (a boda boda operator) stabbed 25 year-old Anthony Mutethia on the chest. The victim was pronounced dead on arrival at Meru Level Five Hospital.
While the assailant managed to run away, his motorbike was taken to the police station by Makutano residents.
Revellers say that the two started arguing at the closing moments of the match.
It has been gathered that Mwangi got bitter after Mutethia started mocking him and on their way out, the argument got nasty prompting him to stab the former.
“He was also drinking beer as the game proceeded and because Mutethia was also a bit drunk they could not have come to terms over their argument. This is just a game for entertainment and he should not have got so tempered,” said a reveller, who had accompanied Mutethia.
Police has started thoorough investigation to establish the motive of the alleged murder.
