DP Ruto`s Security Details Restored

Sources privy to the information have revealed that a number of security officers most of whom are GSUs at the DP’s Karen residence have been ordered back and replaced by Administration Police.

On the other hand, the recalled GSU officers have been reassigned to the President’s team. They are expected to exit DP’s residence by evening as APs take over.

“We have received communication to be on standby to leave anytime,” a GSU officer at the gate of DP’s residence said.

This comes at a time Jubilee nominated senator Milicent Omanga posted on her Twitter account calling out the state for the changes made on the DP's security detail.

Kapseret Member of Parliament, Oscar Sudi, posted on his Facebook that the DP's security had been withdrawn from his Karen residence and his Sugoi home.

He further blamed the head of State Uhuru Kenyatta and Interior Cabinet Secretary, Fred Matiang'i, for the changes.

"President Uhuru Kenyatta is a very petty President, but CS Matiang'i is the pettiest of all. The duo has just ordered the withdrawal of all security officers manning Sugoi, Elgon View home, Karen Residence, and all other premises linked to DP Ruto," Sudi stated in a post on his Facebook account.
