The strongest evidence linking Eliud Lagat to Albert Ojwang’s murder is his communication with the Central Police Station OCS Talaam. Lagat ordered Albert's arrest and torture that ended up being a murder.
The National Intelligence Service, working with the Directorate of Criminal Investigation, came up with a scheme of getting the Independent Policing Oversight Authority (@IPOA_KE) to release Talaam’s phone from their custody to the @DCI_Kenya so that they could erase evidence.
The story that Talaam’s phone was used to extort money, while IPOA had it locked up as evidence, is a trick by the NIS to convince the court to order the release of the phone to the DCI.
That phone has crucial evidence that ties Lagat to a murder. If that phone is discredited, Lagat gets away with murder and his juniors carry the cross for him. Lagat is a crucial player in Ruto’s survival, so much so that he would rather let Kenya burn than see Lagat go to jail.
Ruto has also lined up the man who was ordering the murder of Gen Z, former Nairobi Regional Police boss Adamson Bungei as a possible successor. Bungei is the current Director of Operations based at the police headquarters. The police officers working with goons this past week wouldn't have done that without the approval of Inspector General of Police, Kanja, and his director of operations, Bungei.
The officers who arrested Albert Ojwang’ were briefing Eliud Lagat on everything, including their movements, yet Kenyans are now being asked to believe that the briefings suddenly stopped just before Albert was killed and that Lagat somehow became a complete stranger to the operation.
That story does not add up.
You cannot receive updates throughout an operation, follow the movements of the officers involved and then conveniently disappear from the chain of communication at the exact moment the operation turns deadly.
Kenyans are not stupid, and any attempt to isolate junior officers while Eliud Lagat is treated as though he knew nothing must be rejected.
I am shocked by the sudden honesty from the State over the death of Albert Ojwang, including the recovery of CCTV footage and the speed at which some details are now being released to the public.
Whenever the State becomes this open in a case involving powerful people, I immediately ask myself whether they are preparing to sacrifice a small fish so that the person who gave the orders remains protected.
The Star reported that Albert was at one point removed from Central Police Station and taken to Karura, where he was said to have met a senior police official before being tortured, collapsing and causing panic among those involved.
This sudden honesty now begins to connect the dots, because the State may be showing Kenyans the final part of the story while carefully keeping attention away from who ordered Albert’s removal, who was waiting in Karura and why he was taken there.
When the State shows you something and tells you something, do not only look at what they have presented, always ask what they are hiding, who they are preparing to blame and which bigger person they are trying to protect.
Eliud langat ordered the arrest and killing of Albert ojwang. He must carry how own cross too.. we must drain this swamp from the senior most to those inmates.
