Jimmy Wanjigi Claims His Life In Danger, Requests For Police Protection

Businessman Jimmy Wanjigi has written to the Inspector General of police, Joseph Boinnet saying his life might be in danger.
Through his lawyers Githinji and Karoki advocates, the billionaire has said that he has noticed persons unknown to him follow him.
Wanjigi strongly believes that the systematic onslaught against him is due to his political affiliations. He has been seen to be supporting NASA presidential candidate Raila Odinga and was at one time purported to be a key financier of the NASA campaign.

In one of the incidents he is said to have confronted the people following him which was reported on August 7th by The Standard News paper captioned ‘Business comes to a standstill after Jimmy Wanjigi confronts mystery car.’
He claims that a senior State House official also visited his residence and warned them of imminent threat to his life.
He has since reported the matter to the Gigiri Police Station under OB Number 14/10/9/2017.
He has asked the office of the Inspector General to expeditiously and with urgency intervene an provide him with police protection at his cost.

Even during our dinner...

Freedom: The One Thing Gaddafi Could Not Give — And the One Thing No Government Can Take Away

How could a country with high living standards, generous state programs, and a strong economy turn so swiftly against a leader who appeared to have delivered materially for his people? This question is not just about Libya. It speaks to a deeper truth about governance, legitimacy, and the limits of developmental authoritarianism. It speaks to Africa’s political future. And it speaks directly to the crossroads at which Kenya now finds itself. --- The Libyan Paradox: Prosperity Without Liberty Before the 2011 uprising, Libya’s economic and social indicators were strikingly strong for the region.
