His arrest has been welcomed by Kenyans with some requesting the DCI not to deport him but have him charged and jailed in the country.
Here are some of the reactions:
Don’t deport the guy. Let him serve at Kamiti and this should last the rest of his life. But surely, you can buy these things (for any price)
