Detectives from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) are looking for former Mungiki leader Maina Njenga for questioning. 

In a statement by DCI on Monday, May 22 DCI noted that detectives are looking for Njenga in connection to two firearms and bhang recovered in one of the houses linked to him. 

"Detectives based in Nakuru County are looking for ex-Mungiki leader Maina Njenga, in relation to the recovery of two firearms and over 90 rolls of bhang, found at a home linked to him.

"In the raid conducted at Ngomongo village in Dundori ward, the officers who arrested 8 suspects aged between 37 and 54 also found three rounds of 9mm blank ammunition hidden in one of the rooms. One of the firearms recovered was a home made pistol capable of firing while the other one was a Tokarev whose serial number had been defaced," part of the statement read.

According to DCI, Maina Njenga has gone into hiding and detectives are seeking any leads from the public on his whereabouts. 

This comes days after the former Mungiki leader said security officers raided his Laikipia and Nairobi homes for unknown reasons. 

However, police denied knowledge of any raids of his homes.
