Former President Uhuru Kenyatta on Monday, April 22 spoke on 2,000 unknown goons invading his family’s Northlands City farm in Ruiru, Kiambu County on Monday, March 27, the first time he spoke on the matter.

Speaking at Ngong Racecourse during the party’s National Delegates Convention (NDC), Uhuru noted that he remained silent throughout the daring invasion which saw rare sheep worth Ksh70 million looted as well as an unknown number of trees destroyed.

“We handed over power in peace, publicly and in broad daylight. I stayed quiet even when they insulted me, stole my goats and set my farm on fire, all while thinking I was being threatened,” Uhuru opened up.

During the raid, over 1,400 Dorper sheep were stolen and carried away by the intruders on their shoulders, who seized the opportunity to make quick cash by selling them for as little as Ksh1,000 to passersby.

The animals were returned to the farm at different times by people who told staff there they did not want to be cursed.

Northlands City farm security manager, Patrick Masinde, on Thursday, April 13 revealed that the farm recovered 18 Dorper sheep stolen from the property which was invaded by more than a thousand goons.

The second batch of 30 sheep was returned in a truck with a concealed license plate and dropped at the gate of the Kenyatta family property. Another two were dropped near the farm along the Eastern bypass.

Masinde noted that the goons, some believed to be aides of two Nairobi politicians, used cars to drop off the sheep at strategic points near the farm’s fence along the Eastern by-pass.

To avoid being spotted and arrested, the goons returned the sheep before reportedly speeding off immediately after dropping off the animals.

Reports stated that some goons had dropped off the sheep at their own volition at the gate of police stations near the farm, with 18 sheep worth Ksh900,000 since returned.

Masinde added that police called the representatives from the Kenyatta family farm to identify the sheep through special marks, after five sheep were dropped off near Dandora Police Station on Wednesday, April 12.

However, the sheep recovered were in bad shape, with the security manager noting that they could have gone days without food.
