Kiambu Governor Kimani Wamatangi claims his life is in danger after he was allegedly trailed by an unknown vehicle.
Speaking during a press conference on Tuesday, January 20, 2026, the Kiambu Governor said the incident raised serious concerns about his safety, particularly coming barely days after most of his security detail was withdrawn.
With this, he demanded that his security be beefed up to ensure adequate protection against those he says have ill-intentions against him.
“They were trying to appear as if they’re minding other business, but it is my movements that they were watching. If there was any issue to be brought to my attention, they would come and speak to me, but the whole saga tells me there was a sinister motive with those who were trailing me,” Wamatangi said.
“It is important that I bring it to the attention of the IG since it is my opinion, position and request that I should have very enhanced security. I don’t want to be a rumour monger, but such people may not have good intentions,” the Governor added.
Wamatangi therefore insisted that his security arrangements must be reviewed urgently to address any potential threats.
