Jimmy Wanjigi: They want to execute me yet government was formed at my home
Jimmy Wanjigi has accused the government of persecuting him and his family after a raid during which firearms were reportedly recovered and his property destroyed.
A raid was carried out in Malindi and another at the billionaire businessman’s home in Muthaiga, Nairobi.
“They assaulted my wife [Irene Nzisa] as she tried to record the breakages in the house. GSU officers came into this home guarding us like we are criminals. It’s very sad that a government can do that to its citizens,” he told the press at the residence on Wednesday.
“If they can do that to some of us who live in estates, I cannot imagine how much common mwananchi is harassed in the country.”
A number of NASA supporters have been killed and injured during demonstrations against IEBC ahead of the repeat election on October 26.
Police have teargassed the supporters, beat them up with batons and shot some including children.
Police have denied Amnesty’s report that at least 33 people have been killed.
