Ruto Speaks After Visiting Blogger Dennis Itumbi in the Hospital
Deputy President William Ruto has visited blogger Dennis Itumbi in hospital where he is recuperating following his alleged kidnapping and torture last week.
Through Twitter on Wednesday, Ruto said Itumbi is strong and in high spirits, though he will remain bedridden for the next month as per the doctors’ advice.
“Spent time with Comrade DI last evening, saw his heavily bandaged arm and legs, the result of torture by people who should have been there to protect him and us all. They have now turned violent & fatalistic after all the negative narratives, threats and blackmail against us failed,” Ruto wrote.
He added: “They wanted to kill his spirit but DI is strong and in very high spirits though doctors say he will be confined to bed for a month.”
Itumbi, who serves as Ruto's digital strategist, was reportedly picked up by four unknown men outside a barbershop along Kiambu Road where had gone for a shave last Thursday.
Eyewitnesses said the suspected kidnappers approached him as he left the barbershop and forced him into a silver Toyota Allion before driving off towards Nairobi.
Itumbi was reportedly found dumped on the roadside in Kasarani area and was rushed to Neema Hospital with injuries on the head, arms, and legs. He was later transferred to Nairobi West Hospital where he was admitted.
The incident was reported at Thindigua Police Post and booked under OB number 10/23/12/2021.

Haya, this DP Ruto is stupid! He lacks intelligence.
Itumbi is a bitch and a kiss ass. He is also a Fake ass
Tell us arap lootall how much he has squandered from you and didnt perform the job as expected that you sent your soldiers to discipline him as a warning shot to market you using all crooked means or dissappear like kemei the soldier who knew everything about you and echesa 40 billion arms deal.U went there to visit just to camouflage and hoodwink the public just like u did to corporal kimei's family.
Itumbi beating is just a hyena crying woof. What Ruto had organized to seek sympathy failed miserably. Too bad that TangaTanga can bend this low.
This guy Ruto is the worst conman in the world. Copral Kinei never lived to sleep on a hospital bed like this fool with some funny diseases.
Any kind of extrajudicial harm should be rejected, good to see Rutto visiting DI. How ironical that the head of state has not publicly denounced the criminal acts
Nonsense! You don’t even know what the president does or should do! Uhuru will not play the gallery of fools. Let Ruto do the antics after organizing the drama! Is the extrajudicial nonsense to you?
These are dangerous people out to impoverish Kenyans by completely wiping them out their full potential
How do you know its the Police who did it? Yo can record a statement isaidiwe uchunguzi
Who else would do would abduct and torture for all those hours for no benefit other than the handshake duo?
