Following the changes, Police spokesman Bruno Shioso mentioned that the security changes made to the DP’s security team were part of the reassignment of duties within the National Police Service (NPS) to enhance efficiency.

Today 26th August 2021 the security of government buildings unit (SGB) has been deployed to provide general security to the official residence of H.E Deputy president from General Service Unit,” part of the statement read.

Unsatisfied by the explanation, the DP through his Chief of Staff Ken Osinde on Friday, August 26, 2021, wrote to the Inspector General of Police, Hillary Mutyambai demanding a detailed explanation on the replacement of GSU with the AP officers.

According to Osinde, the decision to replace the GSU with APs is contrary to the Police Service Standing Orders Chapter 8 Section 5 (e) which states that โ€œthe GSU commandant shall be responsible for the security of the President, the Deputy President, State Houses and Lodges.โ€

DP Ruto: I have no problem being guarded by AP officers, โ€˜walete hata G4Sโ€™

Full speech: Deputy President William Ruto address at inauguration

Deputy President William Ruto has downplayed the recent controversial move by government to swap General Service Unit (GSU) officers guarding his residences with Administration Police Service officers, terming the matter a non-issue.

DP Ruto, who spoke at a church service on Sunday, said the nation should not waste a lot of time debating the issue as it is inconsequential and instead focus on moving forward.

The DP stated that he does not mind even being guarded by G4S officers, saying GSU officers should protect Kenyans and the country at large hence if that is the purpose for which they were redeployed then he has no problem.

โ€œWe will make sure the nation is firmโ€ฆwakulima wanatafutaโ€ฆhii mambo ya GSU, AP ni mambo madogo sana tusipoteze wakatiโ€ฆSina shida na AP wakikuja kusimamia mahali naishiโ€ฆwale GSU kama kazi imepatikana ili Wakenya wapate usalama wacha wasaidie Wakenya pale,โ€ he said,

โ€œWanaweza leta hata G4S, there is no problemโ€ฆtusilete migawanyiko kwa askariโ€ฆtuache siasa duniโ€ฆ.wale wanajitafutia nani mkubwa nani mdogo, haya hayasaidii changamoto zilizoko kwa Wakenyaโ€ฆpriorities ni kujua wafanyibiashara wanapata fedha wapi.โ€

The DP also rubbished calls from a section of the political class, including President Uhuru Kenyatta, for him to resign from the Jubilee government over his alleged dissatisfaction with its operations.

 

According to him, quitting the government he helped form at this point would only amount to the millions of Kenyans that braved long queues and a cold morning weather to cast votes in Jubileeโ€™s favour.

โ€œNimepewa mawaidha,ย sijui nijiuzulu kuna matatizo kwa serikaliโ€ฆsasa nawaambia siku niliamua kutafuta uongozi nilijua kuna matatizo na shida ya kutatuaโ€ฆwakati unatafuta suluhu kama kiongozi unaweza kupata matatizo,โ€ he said.

โ€œItakuwa uwoga na aibu kubwa kwamba mimi nitatoroka kwa matatizo yaliyokoโ€ฆitawezekanaje nitoroke?ย Niย usaliti mkubwa kwawale waliamka mapema kunipigia kura,ย ati kwa sababu kuna matatizo,ย mimi sikuchaguliwa kula ice creamโ€ฆkujaribu kukwepa nitawasaliti mamilioni.โ€
