These city gangs are slowly becoming a menace. Even after two members of the Eastleigh based Super Power gang were executed in public, bado, the daring robberies and kidnappings have not decreased.

If anything they are becoming a frequent occurrence around the city.

The husband to Kirinyaga County Woman Representative aspirant Purity Wangui Kuria-Ngirichi yesterday afternoon fought off suspected kidnappers as they tried to snatch him in Nairobi.

Andrew Peter Ngirichi said he physically fought off his attackers forcing them to flee in the daytime attempt near Integrity Centre in the city.

The suspected kidnappers abandoned their car on the road with Ngirichi inside and jumped onto a waiting motorbike and rode off in the midday incident.

Ngirichi said a man identified as Ngugi Muigai had called him and introduced himself as an agent of Kenya Revenue Authority and wanted to help him to sort out some taxation issues that the businessman has.

“I don’t know how he knew about the case I have in court but he said he wanted to help me. I have moved to court to challenge this matter,” said Ngirichi.

Muigai had asked Ngirichi to meet him at the Milimani Law Courts but the businessman told him to meet him at the Panafric Hotel.
