Mwangi cited the March 27, 2023 incident at former President Uhuru Kenyatta’s Northlands Farm in Ruiru, where intruders allegedly breached the perimeter fence, stole livestock, cut down trees and set parts of the property on fire.
He noted that no known arrests or prosecutions have been made in connection with the incident.
He further pointed to the 2024 Gen Z-led protests, alleging that demonstrators were met with coordinated violence and that public infrastructure was damaged during the unrest.
He also raised concerns about claims of collaboration between some security personnel and criminal groups during the demonstrations.
Mwangi added that similar allegations have continued into 2025, including claims of violence targeting protesters and accusations of sexual violence against female demonstrators.
He questioned what he termed inconsistencies in the justice system, saying some protesters have faced terrorism-related charges while others linked to the violence have not been prosecuted.
His remarks come amid broader public debate on organised violence in the country.
According to a recent Saturday Nation review, there are growing concerns about structured networks involving financiers, handlers and perpetrators behind repeated attacks on public figures and property, with calls for accountability and stronger enforcement.
Mwangi argued that failure to address such concerns risks deepening mistrust between citizens and state institutions.
He said sustained use of organised groups in political competition could worsen tensions, particularly during election periods.
He called for thorough investigations and consistent application of the law across all cases, saying this is necessary to restore public confidence and reduce political tensions.
