DCI Summons Businessman Stanley Livondo over President Kenyatta Assassination Claims

Nairobi businessman Stanley Livondo on Monday recorded a statement with the police over President Kenyatta’s assassination claims.

Livondo was summoned by the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) to shed light on the allegations he made during Gatundu South MP Moses Kuria’s thanksgiving event at Thika Stadium on Saturday.

The businessman alleged that an individual whom he did not name attempted to assassinate President Kenyatta on two occasions by targeting the plane carrying him.

“You have a friend, who attempted to crash your plane twice, will you forgive him?  The first attempt was when President Uhuru Kenyatta was leaving Kisumu and the second attempt was when he was going to the US through Dubai and he had to make a detour,” Livondo claimed.

Police spokesperson Bruno Shioso said Livondo was summoned to help detectives in investigations. 

On Sunday, MP Kuria distanced himself from the allegations and urged the DCI to arrest Livondo over the reckless utterances. 

“As the convenor of the thanksgiving prayer meeting in Thika, I may not be responsible for what speakers said but it was my meeting and I have to take responsibility. I have today requested DCI boss George Kinoti to arrest Stanley Livondo following his reckless statement,” Kuria said in a statement.

    Livondi you a just saying what has been rumored many times before! He should be awarded for letting the car out of the bag! The dci should pursue the person Livonia was talking about! I see now reason why Livondo should tell a lie!

  2. JohnsonFeb 21, 2022

    Now That Livondo has registered a statement on what he knows about the attempt to assassinate the president, let the DCI arrest the person who arranged to down the president’s plane and have him answer some charges.

    Livondo Livondo. Mjinga kabisa kabisa

  4. KipseremFeb 21, 2022

    Livondo is telling the truth! The rate at which we have seen Ruto salivating for power, he is capable of setting the president up! That could be where all the problems between them started!

  5. ImpunityFeb 21, 2022

    Kenya has too many ABOVE THE LAW CRIMINALS.From Uhuru,Kibaki,Raila & their families to all governors,senators/MPs to drug lords like Livondo,Kabogo & Co.murderers Kamanda,Murathe,Wanjiru etc.You qualify to be ABOVE THE LAW the moment you campaign for muuaji Raila.”dr”Livondo and KARUMA INDO,KOINANGE St.,MODERN GREEN trader,Sabina Joy will just escape the law as they were campaigning for vulture Raila when they uttered the allegations.

    I hope MP Kuria recovers and gets back on his feet. However, we hope that his illness/accident and the consequent treatment (lots of tax payers' money) opened his eyes to the problems faced by his Gatundu constituents. His sojourn in Dubai hopefully exposed him to a system that works and he should extend the same to his people through policy formulation and implementation.

  7. WereFeb 21, 2022

    Apparently Livondo knows what he is talking about! He just gave all the evidence to the dci and he says he got more evidence to submit!

  8. KellyFeb 21, 2022

    Kuria should have stayed bed ridden for a little longer. He is a trouble maker who loves chaos. He should step on another electric blanket.

  9. Mr. CollusionFeb 21, 2022

    I think you are right Kelly. Hii jamaa ni jinga sana

  10. ZacFeb 21, 2022

    I wonder who Livondo is talking about. But, I Think he said the guy is a very high ranking government official who cannot be forgiven by the president! Could that person be DP Ruto?

  11. Mr. CollisionFeb 21, 2022

    Zac of course not. Dr. Ruto is a family man and a very honorable man. He would never do such a detestable thing, never ever

  12. AliFeb 21, 2022

    Really? DP Ruto has done such things before - Yebei, Juma, Kinei, etc! He has a track record of doing heinous crimes besides stealing!

  13. Mr. CollusionFeb 22, 2022

    Ali, but hii was not proven kotini. Here in maai mahiu we may not like the outcome of the courts but tunaiheshimu sana…. Unlike Uhuru

  14. Ole SanitiniFeb 22, 2022

    Ya, Ruto he is a family man alright! But he is accused of bribing ICC witnesses to avert the course of justice in a situation he burned women and children in the Kiambaa church massacre of 2007.

    Don’t be a foolish dude when talking about Ruto. He is also the most corrupt politician in the Kenyan landscape! Where have you been?

  15. Mr. CollusionFeb 22, 2022

    Let me not give you your matusi back

  16. MugīkūyūFeb 21, 2022

    Livondo, sema yote!

  17. Go cryptoFeb 21, 2022

    Mlunje na fitna. They are number 1. How could you choose to spoil Moses day. Atwoli failed now that Mudav joined UDA it's time to use a youth. Shetani ashindwe

    Kwa nini Samoei hajashikwa kutokana na taarifa ya Ndugu Keter juu ya WIZI wake?

    I hope you’re not talking about this thief!

    @ Asista:

    Sijaona jina la Ndugu Keter likitajwa kwa wale wanaogombea urais wa Kenya 2022.

    Ningependa kukushukuru sana kwa kuonyesha mambo aliyofanya Ndugu Keter. Usiwe na wasiwasi! Ndugu Keter atakapogombea uchaguzi wa kuwa rais, nitatumia vidiyo klipu zinazoonyesha mambo mabaya aliyofanya.

    Kwa sasa, nakuomba wewe umpinge vikali Ndugu Samoei kugombea kiti cha urais halafu umkumbushe kinaganaga mambo ya hekima, busara na maarifa yaliyosemwa na Hayati Mpilo Tutu wa Afrika ya Kusini:

    " If you are silent in situations of injustice, you have taken the side of the oppressor."

  21. AsistaFeb 23, 2022

    Well I don’t take sides with any oppressors. All I’m bringing fore is the character of Keter: that he cannot be trusted even with words. What he has is an allegation just like anyone can shout anything down the streets. Only if he can support his allegations is when I can take his word.

  22. Imara DaimaFeb 23, 2022

    Miaka 30 iliyopita, Ndugu Samoei aliuza kuku, mayai, na karanga Eldoret. Alipotumiwa na marehemu Toroitich kwenye uchaguzi YK 92 pamoja na Ndugu Jirongo, ndipo uporaji wa mali ya umma ulianza.
    Rafiki yako Ndugu Samoei amefanya uhalifu mwingi nchini ambao wewe umeamua kumkinga. WaSwahili husema, “ Siku za mwizi ni arobaini.” Je, umesahau yaliyompata Marehemu Ndugu Muteshi na shamba lake? Umesahau msichana wa chuo kikuu aliyefanywa mimba na Ndugu yako Samoei? Umesahau hoteli ya Weston? Kwa nini mpaka sasa ndugu yako hajajitahidi kufanya uchunguzi na kuwashika wote waliohusika kuwateketeza watoto, wazee, na akina mama katika kanisa la PCEA huko Eldoret? Jiulize swali hili: Kwa nini Rais wa Kenya ameamua kumwunga mkono mtu mwingine kuwa rais wa Kenya badala ya rafiki yako Ndugu Samoei?
    @ Asista: WaSwahili husema, “Akipenda chongo huona kengeza.”

  23. AsistaFeb 22, 2022

    Or is it this corrupt dude!

  24. Imara DaimaFeb 22, 2022

    Ndugu Keter hagombei urais wa Kenya! Yeye, hatakuwa rais Agosti 9, 2022.

  25. AsistaFeb 22, 2022

    The strange and and scanty explanations on the goings of this Livondo and the DCI is obviously getting suspicious. There was a well staged weapons signing deal in Ruto’s office not too long ago. It was Livondo and dci in the center stage. As as if that wasn’t enough was the death of Ruto’s chief security officer. DCI was seen dragging the dead body back into the room where the officer had been found dead. The other two foreign actors who were with Livondo and who were supposed to be complainants of conning were disappeared by deportation. The whole saga was meant to bring down the Deputy President. It failed or if I may say so.
    Today, in mid of an election period, we are treated yet with another drama. An alleged assassination of the President. Why is Livondo opening his mouth after all this years? Why now? The government explained the reasons why the plane carrying Uhuru to the States at the the time had to return midway. And in Kisumu again the president delayed and missed his plane as scheduled. Well the president had his personal reasons why he had to take a little more time. Out of these , somebody somewhere is imagining and creating some propaganda for his personal gain. Livondo is being used to propagate some nonsense for political reasons.

  26. SallyFeb 22, 2022

    Who gained when Yebei and Kinei died? If Ruto can killed his own kins, do we need to wonder about Ruto setting Uhuru up? Livondo is telling what he knows about Ruto!

  27. AsistaFeb 23, 2022

    The -would have - beneficiary is the deep state luminaries. They have tried all means to stage sorts of crude traps in an attempt to malign the Deputy president. What has exposed them is how amateur they have performed in the ill fated scheme.

  28. Bobby KibeFeb 22, 2022

    In my language, Livondo stands for the female sexual organ. Haki majina mengine.

  29. Mr. CollusionFeb 23, 2022

    Bobby maai mahiu inaitangwa kuma ama senye😅

    Ningependa kuwaona Raila na Samoei wakimwachia Kivutha Kibwana ugombeaji wa urais 2022. Kivutha anauwezo wa kuiokoa nchi yaetu kutokana na wizi, ufisadi, rushwa na mambo mengine mabaya ambayo tusipofitahadhari, nchi yetu itadidimia na kufikia kiwango cha Haiti.
