"Yesterday after Kitengela, we drove to Ruiru. There is an artist who was launching a wonderful composition. We are told that Waititu said some things there which did not please some people. We want to tell those people that shame on you," Kalonzo claimed. 

Further, he termed Waititu's arrest as an abduction, calling out the government for using security agencies for politics.

Kalonzo demanded that the agencies follow the law when making arrests.

"Any arrest like that of Waititu is nothing short of an abduction. It does not follow due process. They should have gone to court and obtained orders," Kalonzo remarked.

Waititu was arrested on Monday by officers from DCI. Following the arrest, Kalonzo alongside other officials from Azimio visited DCI headquarters along Kiambu Road demanding to see him and secure his release.

The DCI is yet to issue a statement on the arrest.
