Two OCPDs were apprehended for escorting Prophet David Owuor's convoy in Nakuru.
A video that circulated online, showed nine police vehicles in the convoy as the preacher made his way into the town.
The vehicles which have since been impounded belong to the Kabete and Tharaka Nithi bosses.
The action comes after Inspector General of Police Joseph Boinnet vowed to take action against officers, who assigned a security detail to the self-proclaimed prophet.
According to a statement issued to newsrooms, Boinnet claimed that the magisterial display of police protection during Prophet Owuor’s arrival in Nakuru was “inappropriate” and reeked of “misuse of public resources”.
“The law allows one to hire police for private functions; however, not to the scale depicted in the [Prophet Owuor] video. [I am assuring you that] action [is] being taken. Misuse of public resources is not permitted [in law],” the statement read in part.
It is alleged that the man of God was in Nakuru for an event which according to organizers, the preacher was going to “offer healing services” and “curse illnesses”.
Traffic flow within the Town was affected for hours as some of the streets were closed to give way for his entry.
Owuor is holding a two-day prayer meeting in the outskirts of Nakuru town.
Here is the video of his dramatic entrance into Nakuru town:
