Friday
November 29, 2019-State House blogger, Dennis Itumbi, has been
the talk of the town after he was kicked out of the main dais at the Bomas of
Kenya during the launch of the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) taskforce
report on Wednesday.
In a video clip that went viral, Itumbi was seen being
escorted away by the Presidential security from the podium alongside other
journalists who were covering the event.
Some of the journalists were spared and continued
filming, while Itumbi was thrown out by president bodyguards.
Now fresh details have emerged that it is President Uhuru
Kenyatta who personally ordered Itumbi to be kicked out from the presidential
dais.
Notably during the Wednesday event, the President
summoned Interior Security Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i for a chat after
which Dr Matiang’i went and said a word to his Principal Secretary Karanja
Kibicho.
Moments later, Itumbi, who has in the past voiced his
concerns over the BBI initiative, was whisked away from the presidential podium
by security officers.
