Police officer Hiram Kimathi has said he will not be intimidated after being transferred to Tondonyang in Turkana County.
He believes the transfer was punishment for speaking out against issues facing the National Police Service.
“Sack me if you want. I will not be intimidated for speaking the truth,” Kimathi said in an interview.
He said he expected the transfer, adding that it was, however, done in bad faith. “It was not genuine. It was out of malice. Why me, in the whole nation? Why are you transferring Hiram Kimathi alone?” he said.
Kimathi said the move indicates a serious problem within the NPS.
“I expected it because I knew that they would transfer me regardless of the cost. But I didn’t take it badly,” he said.
