Towards the end of last year, Kikuyu Ward received major security boost after the County Government of Kiambu(CGK) installed High mast security floodlights(Photos Below). This was a move by the CGK in an effort to curb insecurity in the area, and assist traders who would work late in the night, a good thing for 24 hour economy. Currently, there are floodlights at Alliance stage, Approved, ACK Kidfarmaco and Kikuyu Town among other areas all over the County.
Prior to this, the County Govt had purchased vehicles, some which were to be used by the police to patrol all wards in Kiambu. Kikuyu Mp Hon Kimani wa Ichung'wa, alongside other legislators incited the people of Kiambu county against those vehicles, some of which were already being used by police officers to do patrols within Kikuyu Sub-county.
This action prompted the County govt to withdraw her vehicles. Since then, the people of Kikuyu are being clobbered day and night by thugs. Did he have the interest of the people of Kikuyu at heart? Apparently, Kikuyu Sub-county does not have functional police vehicles and they were relying on County Govt vehicles for regular patrols. In a twist of actions, the Kikuyu MP(below left) is busy posting photos on Facebook of him and senior security officers discussing insecurity matters which he is a big contributor.
