Nelson Amenya, the whistleblower of the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA)-Adani deal, has accused the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) of targeting his family.

On October 29, 2024, Amenya claimed via X (formerly Twitter) that DCI officers unlawfully visited his parents’ home, suspecting it had been bugged.

Amenya narrated that officers entered his family’s residence under the pretext of searching for a stolen vehicle.

“The DCI Subaru gang claimed they had traced a stolen vehicle to the compound, searched the house up to the rooftop, and then left. I believe they planted bugs,” he wrote.

He added that detectives later raided a friend’s garage, alleging the presence of a stolen Mercedes. During the search, DCI officers documented details of all parked vehicles, pledging to follow up.

Amenya issued a stern warning to the detectives, asserting, “I know your identities. If any harm befalls anyone connected to me, the world will know who you are, and you will be held personally accountable.”

The whistleblower, known for exposing controversial dealings between the Kenya Airports Authority (KAA) and Adani Group, emphasized that the DCI should prioritize tackling serious national issues like homicides and corruption.

He criticized the misuse of resources to target civilians, stating, “Focus on real threats rather than weaponizing law enforcement against those exposing state capture and corruption.”

Amenya concluded by reiterating his commitment to a Kenya free from corruption, where law enforcement serves justice without bias or political influence.
