In a dramatic twist that’s sending shockwaves through the digital space, popular influencer Kelvin Moinde has been arrested and whisked away to Nairobi after allegedly ruffling feathers with his online posts targeting Deputy Inspector General Eliud Langat.
Moinde was picked up covertly by sleuths from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) in Kisii before being quietly transported to Kamukunji Police Station, where he is currently being held.
Sources close to the operation suggest the arrest is linked to his recent social media commentary, seen as critical of the senior police boss. The move has triggered heated conversations online about freedom of expression and the growing crackdown on digital dissent.
