MP Johanna Ng'eno arrested for demeaning Uhuru

Emurua Dikirr MP Johanna Ng'eno was arrested on September 7, 2020 for demeaning President Kenyatta.

What you need to know:

  • In drama streamed live on the MP's facebook page, MP Ng'eno is seen surrounded by members of public and being escorted to Emurua Dikirr Police Station.
  • He was yet to record a statement by press time but a police report said he was arrested for demeaning and using abusive language President Uhuru Kenyatta.
  • Mr Ng'eno is accused of committing the offence during a thanksgiving ceremony at the home of the late Joseph Waitakei Kipsang in Transmara West on September 6.

There was mayhem in Emurua Dikirr Constituency on Monday as residents tried to bar sleuths from the Directorate of Criminal investigations (DCI) from arresting their MP Johanna Ng’eno.

Trouble started after they learned that several police officers had gone to the MP's home in the constituency to apprehend him over his utterances at a function on Sunday.
