Mumias East member of Parliament Honorable Peter Kalerwa Salasya has finally opened up after armed men tried to arrest him in Mombasa. Through his official X handle, Salasya has lashed out at Police officers for laxity on responding to his plea.
He has demanded to know what really happened at his hotel and why he was being arrested by masked police officers at night. He also wondered why they went for him with a vehicle without proper identification.
From the video, the vehicle had no number plates and those armed men failed to identify themselves despite some having Police uniforms. When he demanded to know their names, they simply walked away and left the Hotel In their unmarked vehicle.
Salasya has claimed that since the death of Kasipul member of Parliament Honorable Charles Were Ong’ondo, he is careful with his security and will not allow unknown people to get hold of him.
“I want to categorically condemn the reckless, shameful, and cowardly attempt by unidentified individuals purporting to be police officers who stormed my hotel residence in Mombasa earlier today in an effort to unlawfully arrest me. These individuals had no identification, no arrest warrant, and no explanation—just a crude, rogue attempt to intimidate me.
Let it be clear: this was not an arrest. It was a criminal act disguised as law enforcement. An attack not just on me as a Member of Parliament and 2027 presidential candidate, but on the democratic space of this nation.
I call upon the relevant security agencies to stop sleeping on their job and swing into immediate action. I demand to know: who sent these thugs? Who gave them orders to violate my rights? Who is so terrified of my voice that they would resort to such cowardice?
To those behind this, hear me loud and clear: you will not silence me. You will not threaten me into submission. No amount of intimidation, harassment, or attempted abduction will stop me from speaking for the people of Kenya and fighting for a country free from tyranny and impunity.
I will soldier on. I will not blink. Kenya must and will be free from dictatorship
Hon. Peter Kalerwa Salasya
Member of Parliament, Mumias East
2027 Presidential Candidate” posted Salasya.
