Detectives from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) on Wednesday arrested Dennis Itumbi.
Itumbi, a digital communication strategist based at Deputy President William Ruto’s office, was reportedly arrested at Charlie’s Bistro restaurant in Nairobi CBD.
Itumbi was allegedly apprehended in connection with a fake letter alleging that there was a plot to assassinate DP Ruto. He was taken to DCI headquarters on Kiambu Road for questioning.
His arrest comes days after Daily Nation reported that the DCI was zeroing in on two DP Ruto aides linked to the fake letter.
Responding to the Daily Nation article via Twitter, Itumbi said:
“Journalism is at its lowest form when Daily Nation pens a story and reproduces allegation after allegation – but does not bother to call or text any of the communication officers in the Presidency they claim are being sought by DCI Kenya and are in hiding. Objective verification.”
The letter alleged that a group of leaders from Mt. Kenya region, including four Cabinet Secretaries, had been meeting at La Mada Hotel along Thika Road to plan Ruto’s assassination.
The four Cabinet Secretaries are Peter Munya (Trade), Sicily Kariuki (Health), Joe Mucheru (ICT) and James Macharia (Infrastructure).
Stupidity is costly. Itumbi…
Stupidity is costly. Itumbi will pay dearly. This not like Jackie Maribe case.
Its Uhuru Kenyatta who is…
Its Uhuru Kenyatta who is trying to eliminate people not Itumbi.
Uhuru Kenyatta is the only person who will gain in case of imprisonment of all those CS’s and the death of William Ruto.
Typical catch and release!…
Typical catch and release! Ruto will bail him out! Waste of tax payers money doing all these week long investigations and involving FBI! Quite frustrating!!
Empty debes ruling Kenya…
Empty debes ruling Kenya. Nothing between their ears besides plotting against each other.
In my opinion.
Its Uhuru…
In my opinion.
Its Uhuru Kenyatta who is behind the whole plan of ‘William Ruto Assassination’ drama.
His plan is to eliminate Raila Odinga (By blaming him for the assassination of William Ruto) by blaming the Handshake.
Then blame the USA for the assassination since they are behind the Handshake.
He also wants to eliminate any future Mt.Kenya king pins like Munya, Macharia, Sicily and Mucheru.
Especially Munya since he is from Meru and not a Kikuyu. Meru people have never had a president and they have declared their interest in presidency.
It’s all Uhuru Kenyatta.
That’s my personal opinion.
Attention seeking SOBs WOTE!…
Attention seeking SOBs WOTE! Hiyo kirende yote. Diverting Kenyans’ attention and resources from things that really matter. Lubbich!
