Saturday, June 6, 2026 - A bodyguard attached to the elite Presidential Escort Unit was captured on camera harassing former Assistant Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Sheikh Abdi, during the recent Madaraka Day celebrations held in Wajir.
In the video, the stern-looking security officer is seen
blocking and chasing away the former senior police boss after he attempted to
access the VIP dais.
Mohammed Sheikh Abdi is seen trying to explain himself to
the bodyguard, seemingly attempting to identify himself as a retired senior
police officer, but the officer remains unmoved.
The incident has sparked reactions online, with many Kenyans
criticizing the bodyguard for disrespecting a former Assistant Inspector
General of Police who served the country for over 43 years.
Others, however, defended the security officer, saying
members of the Presidential Escort Unit are required to strictly enforce
security protocols regardless of status.
The video comes at a time when the Presidential Escort Unit
has been facing increased public scrutiny over the handling of the President’s
security during public events.
