This is after they were found at the home of Kapseret MP Oscar Sudi on September 11th when police raided the house seeking to arrest the politician over hate speech and incitement allegations.

The three, Chief Inspector Amos Ekiru and Constables Issack Dida and Simon Siengo, were transferred to different parts of the country after they were ejected from the unit tasked to guard the president, DP, and their families.

Ekiru has been moved to Bondo, Siaya County while Dida and Siengo were transferred to Mandera and Homa Bay respectively.

On that day, the three had escorted DP Ruto to his Sugoi home before driving to Sudi’s home in Eldoret’s Elgon View estate.

When police raided the home on the same day seeking to arrest Sudi, the three were found there while armed, according to reports. They could not explain why they were at the MP’s residence at night.

They were later summoned for questioning before the decision to transfer them was made.

    Kama Wafula Chebukati angalifuata Sura ya 6 ya Katiba ya Kenya, Makamu wa Rais Kipchirchir Arap Ruto asingeruhusiwa kugombea kiti chochote cha uongozi nchini. Msisahau ya kwamba, aliiba shamba la Ndugu Muteshi na kumfanya mwanafunzi mimba akiwa yungali chuoni.

    Had Wafula Chebukati followed the 6th chapter of the Constitution of Kenya, Vice president Kipchirchir Arap Ruto would have disqualified from running for any elective public seat in the nation. Don't forget that he stole the land belonging to Brother Muteshi and impregnated a student while in college.

    Ruto is a sinister agent of chaos and anarchy for our Republic. He is willing to disrupt the system of our government by involving the police to guard and protect his criminal friends at the expense of hurting Kenyans.

    Ruto has surrendered our country to the forces of evil and wanton destruction! Kenyans must wake up and tell Ruto that enough is enough, and openly stop him from further destroying Kenya.

    The presidential guards were ordered to help Sudi and acted because they were afraid that Ruto will have them killed like Kenei.

    Hustler simply means a male prostitute and a thief! Ruto can meet that qualification just fine! But I wonder what Kenyans feel when Ruto insults them after he has stolen everything they owned! Kenyans are not suckers for Ruto to call them prostitutes and thieves after he stole every penny in our government coffers! Quite ridiculous if you ask me!!
