Inspector General of Police Joseph Boinnet has explained why
two traffic police officers could end up losing their jobs after
blocking Uhuru Kenyatta’s motorcade.
Joseph Boinnet said that far from blocking Uhuru, the two were caught taking bribes hence causing a huge traffic snarl-up.
The two,Barnaba Rutto and Joel Atuti have been given dismissal notifications and will face a disciplinary committee which will determine their actual fate.
Joseph Boinnet said that CCTV footage had captured the two taking bribes from motorists.
This was after Uhuru Kenyatta apparently saw them taking bribes and made calls to the police top command to have action taken.
In defense, the two had said that they were actually trying to arrest a matatu driver who had packed in the middle of the road.
