The MP has lamented against the Directorate of Criminal Investigations' (DCI) move to leave him unarmed, after handing over his gun to DCI officers in Nakuru.

He claimed that the move follows the withdrawal of his security detail. 

The MP said he had left it to citizens to protect him from those who might want to harm him.

But lawyer Ambrose Weda, in an interview on KBC English Service on Wednesday morning, called upon the lawmaker not to worry, saying that God will see him through his woes.

"Ngunjiri needs to know that he is protected, he should believe in God and not guns or security personnel," said the High Court advocate who doubles up as a political analyst.

Ambrose Weda also faulted the vocal MP over his claims that Kenyans will protect him, pointing out that if there are plans to harm him, those who will execute it will be just fellow Kenyans.

"When he says that the people will protect him, it's not trees that attack people, it's the same Kenyans," noted the Lake Basin Development Authority (LBDA) board member.

This is as he faulted the police, arguing that guns are privately owned weapons bought by their owners, which bars the government from confiscating them from their owners.

Kimani Ngunjiri received the order to return the gun on Tuesday, after being grilled over his recent claims that Deputy President William Ruto was kicked out of his official residence in Mombasa.
