Citizens Party leader Rigathi Gachagua has warned police officers connected to a former unit known as "Nairobi Sierra" to come forward and reveal what they know about its operations. On August 9, 2026, Gachagua stated that the unit had been dismantled and its officers were reassigned, but he alleged they faced danger due to potential knowledge of past activities.

Gachagua urged these officers to disclose their information and seek protection through the Witness Protection Agency, claiming there were plans to eliminate former members to prevent them from revealing evidence. He urged those with information to speak out before it's too late, stating they should "confess what they did" and seek protection through the Witness Protection Agency.

Gachagua's remarks highlight concerns about police accountability and the importance of preserving evidence in investigations.
