More police officers have been sent to the homestead of Mama Sarah Obama following fears of a retaliatory attack by terrorists.
Siaya police boss Stephen Cheteka said the move to beef up security to the family of the US president came after they received threats of a terrorist attack three days ago.
Security measures
“We received reports of plans to attack the home of Mama Sarah Obama three days ago and we immediately put in place adequate security measures,” Mr Cheteka said.
The OCPD added that the home would be under round the clock surveillance and visitors to the home would be subjected to a thorough screening.
Siaya leaders, led by former mayor Obiero Otare, had expressed fears that the Kogelo home of the famed grandmother might be the target of terrorist attacks.
