The Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has finally joined Kenyans in a discussion where a blogger was allegedly killed under police custody.
According to what was shared by Police officers, Mr. Albert was picked by police from his Migori home. Transported to Nairobi Central Police station where he was allegedly booked. He was later found dead and Police claimed he hit his head on the cell walls.
Well, the clarification from Police officers did not satisfy Kenyans at all including Gachagua. The former President has protested the interdiction of Police officers who were on duty when Albert was found dead. As per him, it is Deputy Inspector of Police Eliud Lagat who should be shown the door.
According to Gachagua, it is Lagat who is the complainant in the arrest of activist Albert Ojwang and it’s not right to fire those following Orders while leaving the main people.
“Albert Ojwang’s brutal murder in the hands of the police officers has revived the painful wounds of the tens of GenZs who continue to be killed by security agencies of the Ruto Administration. In the strongest terms possible, I condemn this cowardly act by the killers and call for speedy investigations. Culprits must be brought to book. The Deputy Inspector General of Police Mr. Eliud Lagat is the complainant, and the one who ordered the arrest in the alleged ‘crime’ that Ojwang committed of making a fair comment on his social media account on Mr. Eliud Lagat. He must take full responsibility for this murder. This is the same Eliud Lagat in charge of Police Cells. He is the same Eliud Lagat who ordered Police to withdraw from a church service in Mwiki on Sunday, 6th April 2025, to allow for goons to attack me and congregants. Suspending junior officers at Central Police station is hoodwinking Kenyans. For any meaningful investigations to be done, Mr. Eliud Lagat must be suspended immediately. DIG Eliud Lagat is personally operating Kamukunji Police Station and Central Police Station without the knowledge of police IG.” Said Gachagua.
“People are complaining that those two stations have become the new torture chambers.
That is the reason Albert had to be moved from Homa Bay to Central Police Station in Nairobi. To the family of Albert and the people of HomaBay County, friends of Albert and the people of Kenya, especially the GenZs, I stand with you in seeking justice for Albert, whose murder has fingers pointed to this cowardly regime. What have the young people, small children done to deserve these macabre killings? What have the parents done to lose their children in the hands of this dictatorial regime? There has been no worse mutilation of our freedoms in Kenya than under this regime.
It is now clear that the so-called Broad-based Government is Blood-Based Government whose engine is powered by the blood of GenZs. It was formed after the blood of young people was splashed in the streets, and it continues to survive on this. The beneficiaries are quiet as the young people get brutally murdered.
Mr. President, leave our children alone. You swore by the Holy Bible to protect the lives and property of Kenyans.
William and your cabal, how many gallons of blood do you want to be okay? Albert has never met a wall before getting into central police? Kenya is not a mafia state! Genesis 4:10
The LORD said, “What have you done? Listen! Your brother’s blood cries out to me from the ground.” Posted Gachagua.
