Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has sensationally described how police were plotting to murder blogger cum digital strategist Dennis Itumbi.

Speaking during a thanksgiving service in Kerugoya, Kirinyaga County, Gachagua said the police were debating on how they would kill Itumbi with some suggesting that he should be shot at a nearby container, another one said he should be taken to the Aberdares forest to be eaten by hyenas, yet another suggesting that he should be killed and dumped in River Yala.

Without proving any evidence, Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua said the police we acting on the Inspect General of Police George Kinoti.

“Because there is God, people had posted online that Itumbi had been kidnapped and was going to be killed, which made the plotters scared,” said Gachagua.

“Inspector General, George Kinoti called those police officers involved to find out if they had executed Itumbi but they said not yet. He ordered them to abort mission, and instead abandon him somewhere” revealed Gachagua.

Itumbi was found in Kasarani by bodaboda riders who took him to the hospital with injuries.

Gachagua continued to say that despite the fact that the Bishop had told people to forgive one another, some things are too hard to forgive.

‘Our hearts are heavy,” said DP Gachagua.

On the role of Itumbi in President William Ruto’s Government, Gachagua said Itumbi had no specific Government office but was he was the President’s spanner boy.

“Azimio people are questioning the role of Itumbi in President William Ruto’s Government. His office is called ‘come here go there.’ He is president Ruto’s handman. He has no office but he is the one,”  Gachagua added.

Digital strategist Dennis Itumbi, one of the major voices in the recent United Democratic Alliance and Kenya Kwanza campaigns for the presidential race took to social media to reveal how he met two Indians who became his friends but were allegedly killed by the Directorate of Criminal Investigation’s disbanded Special Service Unit.
