Wednesday November 28, 2018 - The family of freedom fighter, Dedan Kimathi, has protested the withdrawal of security guards who were guarding his wife, Mukami Kimathi.
According to Kimathi‘s daughter, Evalyne Kimathi, the security guards were withdrawn by the Government on Monday without giving them notice.
“Removing all her security details in Njabini and a bodyguard in Nairobi that Kibaki gave and left intact, will not deter her spiritual journey,” Evalyne said.
"It will only make it smooth knowing that it is only God who gives protection,” she added.
The daughter also said Mukami's driver was first disarmed and then asked to abandon the post about a year ago under unclear circumstances.
Two of Mukami’s other aides were withdrawn a week ago.
"We are wondering what wrong we have committed to warrant this."
Kimathi's widow was offered security and two vehicles by the Government during former President Mwai Kibaki’s tenure.
Mukami is the wife of Mau Mau war hero, Dedan Kimathi, who was buried alive by the British colonialists in 1957.
