Attack on DP’S home ‘a red herring’

Then on going armed attack on Deputy President William Ruto’s rural home in Sugoi home in Uasin Gishu County has been termed “a red herring” by security analysts.

Earlier this afternoon, gun men reportedly staged a raid on the heavily guarded home in an incident that has been variously described by media as a ‘terror attack’ and ‘a raid by gangster’.

Official information has been scanty but the speed at which police, paramilitary and military commandos have descended on the home has raised eyebrows with experts pointing to several tell tale signs of a ‘drill in progress’.

Kenyans will be asking why it took police several hours to get to Garissa when armed raiders a staged a raid at a campus in a real terror attack.

With Raila Odinga having surpassed Uhuru Kenyatta by double digits in latest polls, and the general election only eight days away, analysts have refused to rule out the possibility of creating a diversion to deflate NASA campaign pressure.

There are concerns that the incident is part of an elaborate scare mongering plot to invoke fear and migration of non-locals ahead of the election in areas that have shown signs of voting for NASA.

Observers are quickto add that the International Criminal Court did not shut down operations in Kenya and that outreach offices are keenly following political campaigns and collecting evidence of premeditated violence and other crimes against humanity.

[12:54 AM, 7/30/2017] Jeff: MARKED PRESIDENTIAL BALLOT PAPERS TRANSFERRED TO RUTO’S SUGOI HOME:

The turn of events:

A) 28/07/2017:
1) 10 Am NASA addresses a press conference tabling concrete evidence associating the military with election rigging plans.
2) At 12 Noon, Uhuru Kenyatta responds accusing Raila Odinga of divisive politics and unnecessary attack on the military.
3) At 3:30PM KDF spokesperson issues a statement from DoD headquarters acknowledging that the documents originated from the military.
4) At 5PM Mutahi Ngunyi tweets “military secrets never leak easily, and in an event that they do, the military never accepts.
5) At 8pm the National Security Council summoned to an impromptu meeting at State House, in attendance were security chiefs, the president, Ruto, Matiangi, and Omamo.
To discuss how to relocate the marked presidential ballot papers to Ruto’s home.

29/07/27.

1) Fred Matiangi and Rachael Omamo issues a joint press conference denying that the documents originating from the military as Mutahi Ngunyi had directed. Instead accusing opposition of blackmail. Saying that they military doesn’t have a spokesperson as we speak.
2) William Ruto jets to his Sugoi home in a chopper. Chairs unknown meeting with unknown people.
3) Shortly after 5 choppers land in the compound leaving 30 min later.
4) Shortly thereafter TV stations highlights Breaking News : Tito’s Sugoi home under siege.
Meanwhile William Ruto is busy insulting and blaming NASA in rallies some few kilometers away from the very home under attack.
5) Several hours later police choppers start leaving, civilians sent away from the neighborhood as Jubilee allied politicians start arriving.

We’re not fools.

They started by creating a scene such that the arrival of military tanks and choppers with marked presidential ballot papers are delivered safely in Ruto’s compound without raising eyebrows.
They had to change the location where the marked ballot papers were hidden because NASA had already known and Jubilee had suspected that they might storm the area with the international observers
