Kitutu Chache North MP Jimmy Angwenyi is counting losses after thugs broke into his house and stole valuables among them TV and kitchenette.
It remains unclear if the homestead at Marani was guarded at the time of raid but the MP is among those who enjoy enhanced security due to his position in Parliament.
Mr Angwenyi, an economist by profession, is the Deputy Majority Leader and takes brief on behalf of government in absence of Aden Duale.
Marani Sub County police chief Hilary Tarus said they were zeroing in on the guard as first suspect following the Monday night incident.
"Being on guard during the the time of the incident we believe he holds crucial leads into this theft," Tarus he said on Tuesday.
"We suspect the incident took place between 11 and 12 midnight," the officer said. "We want to know if this person acted alone or was with an accomplice," said Tarus.
The veteran MP is yet to issue a statement. It also remains unclear if it was normal robbery or there were plans to attack the MP, who wasn't around after all.
Mr Angwenyi was first elected to parliament in 1996 after the death of Dr Zachary Onyonka. He lost the seat in 2007 to Richard Onyonka, son to Dr Onyonka.
In 2013, he bounced back after Kitutu Chache constituency was partitioned to North and South, with Richard taking the South seat.
