Heavy police presence at Uhuru Kenyattas Ichaweri home

According to Gatundu South sub-county police commander Jonathan Koech, a total of 30 officers have been deployed to keep watch and ward off any criminal elements.

The same security measures were witnessed at the rural home of Narc-Kenya party leader Martha Karua. 

On Thursday morning police were outside Karua's home in Kimunye area, Gichugu Constituency, Kirinyaga County. Business in surrounding areas progressed as usual. 

The increased security at the home of the former President follows an invasion of one of his properties during the anti-government protests held on Monday, March 27.

Northlands City, a property of the Kenyatta family located along Eastern Bypass in Ruiru was invaded by unknown persons, who cut down trees and walked away with livestock. 

The invaders would later subdivide part of the land, and build semi-permanent structures inside.

As the goons staged an attack on Kenyatta's farm, police officers were nowhere to be seen, until hours later. 

This sparked outrage, with police being faulted for failing to protect the property of the former Head of State. 

On Tuesday, President William Ruto said he will ensure everyone’s life, property, and business is protected.
