The family and friends of police constable Samuel Ngatia are still in shock over his sudden death.

The police officer was attached to the elite presidential escort unit and was attached to Deputy President William Ruto’s security team.

His lifeless body was found in his home in Juja, Kiambu County. A gunshot wound was found on his head. 

He was alone in the house within the General Service Unit’s Recce squad camp along Kenyatta Road at the time of the incident on Monday night (March 11, 2022).

Ngatia, 35, had two children. He had apparently separated with his wife two years ago, a family friend said.

“He did not look stressed when we met last Friday and we are waiting to for word from the police on the incident,” said a close family member.

May he rest in peace. 

Check out the photos of him during happier times.
