Thursday, July 3, 2025 - Activist Boniface Mwangi has sharply criticized blogger Ndiangui Kinyangia, accusing him of deceiving Kenyans who believed he had been abducted.
Mwangi's remarks came shortly after Kinyangia's family,
through their lawyer, Wahome Thuku, revealed that the blogger had gone into
hiding to evade arrest by the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI).
In a strongly worded post on X, Mwangi condemned both
Kinyangia and his family, saying their silence misled a nation that had rallied
for his release.
“What Ndiangui Kinyangia has done is wrong and criminal.”
“An entire country was praying for his safety, thinking he
was abducted.”
“Shame on him and his family for misleading an entire
nation. Kasongo Yeye!” Mwangi wrote, referencing one of President William
Ruto's nicknames.
Lawyer Wahome Thuku confirmed on Thursday morning that
Kinyangia had contacted a family member on Tuesday, assuring them that he was
safe but in hiding due to an imminent arrest.
Thuku disclosed that DCI officers had earlier raided
Kinyangia’s residence and seized several items, prompting him to go
underground.
The incident was reported at Kinoo Police Station.
Kinyangia disappeared last week after sharing details about
the June 25th protests, sparking public outcry and legal action.
A court had ordered Police Inspector General Douglas Kanja
and DCI boss Mohammed Amin to produce him by June 30th.
