We met the family of Erick Otieno who died on Sunday night after being held and reportedly beaten in custody at Muthaiga Police Station. Their pain and heartbreak was palpable and devastating.
The post-mortem report confirms that there were numerous injuries consistent with blunt force trauma to the chest and abdomen. This emerges as information from police on the reason for arrest and what transpired while he was in custody remains scanty. This is Albert Ojwang all over again.
@IPOA_KE have received the report and taken statements from the family, and we expect that swift investigations will be carried out to establish the truth. We call upon the leadership of the @NPSOfficial_KE to preserve the evidence, take decisive steps to identify and bring the perpetrators of any element of foul play to book.

Since Albert Ojwang', at least 28 Kenyans have been murdered inside their cells in Kenya and I think we need to do something, and we need to get angry on the Muthaiga case... The OCS has refused to meet the family and has been sending junior officers to chase them away.
Just saw the DCI post. They arrested Justin Kinyua over a social media post.
It proves everything.🚩
The state is hunting mere critics for far milder things UDA politicians do ten times over, and get away with.
No one will touch Aaron Cheruiyot or Nelson Koech. They're UDA.
But opposition voices? Straight to the cells.
Selective justice is not justice.
One day, this impunity will end.
Sifuna's national appeal is worrying particularly DCP. They want him to confine himself to Western. They are pushing the narrative that Gen Z and Millennials—the youth—don't exist as a voting bloc, claiming that the youth vote is simply a tribal vote. Omwami ni mpaka kwa debe.
We thought it would end with Albert Ojwang, or Julia Njoki. Muthaiga police arrested Eric Otieno on Saturday and on Tuesday he was dead. They BEAT him to DEATH! We can't live like this Guys. Somethings got to give. Thursday ni Maandamano.
Another life lost in police custody. Another family left with questions. Another silence where there should be accountability.
The death of a boda boda rider from Mathare after detention at Muthaiga Police Station is not an isolated tragedy, it echoes the unresolved shadow of Albert Ojwang’s death. How many more names must we turn into hashtags before we confront the truth?
Police cells must never become waiting rooms for death. They are spaces of lawful custody, not unrecorded endings. When the State takes a citizen into its hands, it assumes a duty of care, not a license for cruelty, neglect or disappearance.
This is how impunity becomes culture, not in loud moments, but in repeated silence. And we must refuse to normalise it. It also strikes at the heart of the rule of law, undermining the constitutional guarantee under Article 50 that every person is presumed innocent until proven guilty.
Justice must not be begged for. It must be demanded, enforced, and seen.
If you ever doubted why this regime has to go home, you should listen to this interview with Kimani Ichug’wah. It will sum up a solid reason.
Your lives don't matter to them.
In Kenya right now:
🔹 Pro-govt Farah Maalim threatens 5,000 Gen Zs 👉 NOT A CRIME
🔹 Pro-govt Nelson Koech orders police to shoot protesters 👉 NOT A CRIME
🔹 Pro-govt Duale calls an entire community "hyenas" 👉 NOT A CRIME
🔻 John Kaguchia says: "If you vote Ruto and suffer, we won't rescue you" 👉 3 AM DCI AMBUSH & ARREST
🔻 A blogger exposes government corruption 👉 HUNTED LIKE A TERRORIST
This isn't law enforcement; it's pure state-sponsored impunity.
We must end it. This govt must go
Another very unfortunate case of another young man called Eric Otieno who died from beatings and injuries in Muthaiga police station. A reminder that extra judicial killings are still happening in Kenya under Ruto's regime!!
Bad governance no knows no tribe or political affiliation.
We want to know what happened to the late Eric in Muthaiga police station!!
The first and the most important duty of any patriotic Kenyan in August 2027 is voting out UDA.
The Kenya Kwanza administration is an existential threat to our nation, a problem we must fix in 2027.
How can any normal Kenyan still be shouting Tutam?
H.E Edwin Sifuna has stated that Linda Mwananchi will offer Kenya a government that listens to its people, respects the rule of law, and faithfully upholds democratic ideals and values.
History teaches us that these ideals are the very foundation upon which the world’s most prosperous and stable nations were built. The countries that embraced accountable government, strong institutions, the rule of law and respect for the rights and freedoms of their citizens created the conditions for lasting growth and prosperity.
These values create certainty, certainty attracts investment, investment creates jobs, jobs generate incomes, grow businesses and build prosperity. Ultimately, these values and ideals strengthen the social fabric of a nation.
That is the vision of Linda Mwananchi: a Kenya where government serves the people, institutions are stronger than individuals, enterprise is free to thrive, and every Kenyan has the opportunity to live with dignity and prosper.
