  • The matter is before the DCI
  • One suspects arrested

Kiambu Woman Rep Gathoni Wamuchomba said her life is in danger following her support for the Building Bridges Initiative.

She said threats to her life have been on Facebook adding that there is a "well-choreographed plan" to intimidate her into submitting into the demands of the BBI opponents.

“There are people sending threats to my life on Facebook. They have openly threatened my life on my Facebook page as per below posts."

"I request for protection. If anything happened to me as I sell BBI they are squarely to blame, Pray for me.” the MP said.

Wamuchomba revealed that she has recorded a statement with the DCI following what she claims are persistent threats to her life.

She explained that some of the threats have been circulated on various social media platforms which she said further put her life at risk.

“Those responsible for the threatening posts should tell Kenyans what the coded language they are using means," the woman rep said.

"That is why I am not taking the threats lightly because my life is in danger,” she added.

According to Wamuchomba, one of the suspects is already in custody after he was charged in a Gatundu court.
