“Kamata Hao Watu Wote Hata Kama Ni Waserikali Wetu”: Kindiki Orders Arrests After Kawira Mwangaza Attack
Deputy President Kithure Kindiki has called on police officers to arrest everyone involved in the attack on former Meru Governor Kawira Mwangaza during Mashujaa Day celebrations.
Kindiki condemned the incident while campaigning for President William Ruto’s re-election in Meru County, saying Mwangaza had a constitutional right to express her views publicly without facing violence.
The Deputy President urged security agencies to act swiftly and ensure those responsible face the law, regardless of their political connections or government positions.
“Kamata hao watu wote hata kama ni waserikali wetu,” Kindiki said, calling for the arrest of all individuals involved in the incident, including those affiliated with the government.
His remarks followed reports that Mwangaza was attacked by a group of individuals during the national celebrations. The incident has drawn attention to concerns surrounding political intolerance and the safety of leaders expressing differing opinions.

Kindiki maintained that political disagreements should not justify violence against anyone. He emphasized that law enforcement officers must investigate the incident and take appropriate action against those found responsible.
The Deputy President’s statement also signalled that individuals supporting the Kenya Kwanza administration should not receive preferential treatment if investigations establish their involvement in the attack.
Mwangaza, who previously served as Meru governor, has remained a prominent figure in the region’s political affairs. Her public appearances and political positions have attracted attention amid ongoing political activities in Meru County.
Kindiki’s comments came as he continued his campaign activities in support of Ruto’s second-term bid ahead of the 2027 General Election.
The incident is likely to renew debate over political freedom, public security and the responsibility of authorities to protect leaders and ordinary citizens during public gatherings.
Police investigations and any official statements concerning arrests will be important in establishing the circumstances surrounding the reported attack and identifying those responsible.
Kindiki’s demand for arrests, including of government supporters, places the focus on whether authorities will take action against everyone implicated, regardless of political affiliation.
