Police deployed at former President Uhuru Kenyatta’s Ichaweri Home and Martha Karua’s residence in Kirinyanga.
The government increased security at Uhuru Kenyatta’s rural house in Ichaweri, Gatundu South Constituency, fearing that the Monday incidents will repeat itself days after goons stormed his family’s property.
A total of 30 officers have been deployed, according to Jonathan Koech, the head of the Gatundu South sub-county police, to keep watch and fend off any criminal elements.
At Martha Karua, the leader of the Narc-Kenya partyrural ,’s home, the same security measures were visible.
Police were outside Karua’s residence on Thursday morning in the Gichugu Constituency (Kirinyaga County) neighborhood of Kimunye.
Business in surrounding areas progressed as usual.
The increased security at the home of the former President follows an invasion of one of his properties during the anti-government protests held on Monday, March 27.
Northlands City, a property of the Kenyatta family located along Eastern Bypass in Ruiru was invaded by unknown persons, who cut down trees and walked away with livestock.

The invaders would later subdivide part of the land, and build semi-permanent structures inside.
As the goons staged an attack on Kenyatta’s farm, police officers were nowhere to be seen, until hours later.
This sparked outrage, with police being faulted for failing to protect the property of the former Head of State.
On Tuesday, President William Ruto said he will ensure everyone’s life, property, and business is protected.
“That is what makes us equal. Nobody should trample on the rights of others,” said the Head of State.
