Viral Clip Sparks National Alarm

In a now-deleted TikTok video, Mosquito boldly defended ex-military officer Patrick Osoi and former prison warder Jackson Kihara, alias Cop Shakur. He demanded their release, threatening retaliation if the government refused.

In the disturbing video, Mosquito declared:

“I warn you, Ruto, and I want you to listen to me carefully. Release Patrick Osoi. Release Cop Shakur. Do not tamper with the two officers.”

His message didn’t stop there. He went on:

“We, as the forces, we are tired and we will fight our own. We are not civilians whom you can threaten with a shoot-to-kill order. We have our way. Release those two comrades if you want peace.”

That video spread fast, sending shockwaves across online platforms and prompting immediate DCI intervention.

Items Seized During Arrest Raise Eyebrows

During the operation, detectives conducted a search of Mosquito’s residence. They recovered several alarming items.

Among the seized items were:

• Two pairs of tactical combat fatigues
• Three mobile phones
• A notebook inscribed with the words: “We are going to apply guerrilla resistance tactics. Justice to all freedom heroes.”
• Assorted documents allegedly linked to the Justice Direction Party

The DCI believes these materials hint at organized planning, possibly beyond social media theatrics.

Connections to Arrested Ex-Officers Deepen Suspicion

Just a week ago, the DCI arrested Patrick Osoi, a former KDF officer, along with his two colleagues. They allegedly started a movement to resist police brutality.

Osoi faces serious charges including:

• Preparing to commit a felony
• Illegal possession of firearms and ammunition
• Terrorism-related offenses

Mosquito’s viral rant was seen as a direct threat to national security. His support for the ex-officers added weight to fears of a coordinated uprising.
