MATIANG’I moves swiftly and arrests RUTO’s goon caught red-handed slapping a woman mercilessly for shouting Azimio in the DP’s rally – Look!

 Saturday, February 12, 2022 – A man suspected of assaulting a woman during a political rally in Kisii has been arrested.

The man identified as Joash Atemba Nyagate alias Sokoro was caught on camera slapping a woman during Deputy President William Ruto’s rally in the region.

In the viral video, the suspect slapped the young woman for shouting ‘Azimio’ as Ruto addressed the crowd.

The United Democratic Alliance (UDA) party leader was at the time asking supporters to affirm their support for the Kenya Kwanza alliance.

The woman is believed to be a supporter of Raila Odinga and his Azimio la Umoja movement.

The National Police Service (NPS) confirmed on Friday that the suspect has been arrested and is assisting with investigations into the incident.

Inspector-General of Police Hillary Mutyambai said the suspect will be arraigned once investigations are complete.

“Attention of the National Police Service is drawn to a disturbing and widely circulated video clip where a man is clearly seen assaulting a female during a political rally in Kisii. 

“Police in Kisii have acted on the incident and made an arrest of one male person namely Joash Atemba Nyagate a.k.a Sokoro,” said NPS.

“He is in police custody assisting with the investigation and will face court action once the investigation is completed.”

Ruto was in the company of newfound allies Musalia Mudavadi of Amani National Congress (ANC), Ford Kenya’s Moses Wetangula, among other leaders from various parts of the country allied to the hustler nation.
