A Citizen TV investigation has linked the abduction of Standard Group Associate Editor Alex Kiprotich to the DCI Operations Support Unit, a covert police branch reportedly formed after the disbandment of the Special Service Unit and whose mandate is said to have shifted towards targeting government critics following the Gen Z protests.
The reveals that Kiprotich was moved through Richfield, Hazina and Industrial police stations without being formally booked, with officers allegedly refusing to record his entry or provide their force numbers, raising questions over who authorized the operation, why established booking procedures were bypassed and how the covert branch fits within the wider police command structure.
Bwana IG,
I have seen that you have purported to order a thorough investigation into the abduction of Alex Kiprotich, the Associate Editor of the Standard Media Group.
That investigation, like all the others you have ordered, will go nowhere because it was done by police officers outside your command.
You are clueless about the operations of the National Police Service. I do have more information as to the happenings in the Service than you do. The National Police Service was taken over a long time ago by Mr. Kipchumba Murkomen and Mr. Raymond Omollo, with the concurrence of Mr. William Ruto; orders are directly issued to your DIG, Eliud Langat, and DCI Mohamed Amin.
You are just a flower girl leading a shell, and you will be sacrificed at the right time and blamed for the excesses in the Service.
Let me bring you up to speed.
Mr. Alex Kiprotich was preparing for an assignment in the Mau Forest, where thousands of Mau evictees from the Kipsigis community have been conned out of millions of shillings in compensation money by officials of the National Government Administration under the direction of Mr. Murkomen and Mr. Raymond Omollo. This money has been paid by the duo to their brokers and proxies.
Alex was to publish an exposé giving a blow-by-blow account of how the funds have been stolen, leaving the evictees helpless and in anguish.
A late-night meeting on Monday evening between Mr. William Ruto and Mr. Kipchumba Murkomen sealed the fate of Mr. Alex Kiprotich, where it was decided that he had to be stopped.
The DCI, Mr. Mohamed Amin, was instructed to put Alex under 24-hour surveillance. The DCI assembled a team headed by one Mr. Zachary Kariuki, who, though retired, has been recalled by Amin to coordinate this squad trained in abductions, killings, and cover-ups.
This is the team that abducted Alex Kiprotich and was instructed to abandon the earlier plan to eliminate him after the abduction was captured live and provoked public outrage.
This team of 60 rogue police killers is responsible for the abduction of businessman Jimmy in Mlolongo, as ordered by DIG Langat, Zizo Abdulaziz, Lawyer Molu, and killed Rachel Wandeto after you and Kipchumba Murkomen visited her in hospital.
That is why, even after Mr. William Ruto told Kenyans that the killers of Rachel Wandeto would be arrested, it has not happened and will not happen.
Bwana Kanja, before you order investigations into the abduction of Alex, kindly first release the findings of the previous investigations you ordered into the death of Rachel Wandeto, the attack on Witima ACK Church, the attack on Mwiki PCEA Church, the attack on Kariobangi PCEA Church, and the killings and mayhem in Ol Kalou, to name but a few.
You have no report to release because no investigations were carried out, and none will be carried out. You cannot investigate your seniors, and police cannot investigate themselves.
IPOA is dead, and the rule of law has been suspended.
I can see you crying at the International Criminal Court in The Hague next year.

Again, the brutality is the point. Believe your lying eyes. You can't afford what you used to, and you're pointed to a road being built and told the economy is working. You're abducted, or beaten, and told "si sorry bas, we have a good constitution". Goons roam the streets and you're told security starts with you. This is an argument between Kenya's past and its future.
We are living in fear in our own country. Someone exposes a rotten system, and instead of the law enforcers going after those responsible, they’re unleashed on the person who exposed the rot. The way Kenya is governed, you’d think it’s a family business and 50m citizens are merely employees with no rights. A handful of people cannot keep bullying an entire nation forever. Ipo siku!
