Digital strategist Dennis Itumbi has explained why Crazy Nairobian is being detained.
He said Billy, popularly known as Crazy Nairobian allegedly sent threatening messages occasioning the arrest.
“I have checked with police why Crazy Nairobian, Billy, is under arrest. I understand he sent threatening messages,” Itumbi claimed in a post on X account.
He claimed he gets hundreds of threatening messages that do not bother him.
Itumbi said he was unable to intervene, “though I strongly disagree”.
“I will reach out to the complainant to see if he/she can withdraw,” he added.
The Digital Strategist said when he used to get arrested, he would use the court to his advantage.
According to Itumbi, insults are part of free speech, thus criticising and insulting public servants should not be treated as a crime.
“I will leave the jury to decide if sending threatening messages should be treated as a crime. I would personally not bother report to police, but that I leave to the courts to determine,” he added.
“I also firmly hold that Public Servants should grow a thick skin. Some of these arrests based on your complaints are unnecessary. They may not be illegal, but they are sincerely stupid!”
Crazy Nairobian was allegedly arrested on Friday and his whereabouts remain unknown.
Currently, an X space dubbed “Good Morning Kenya: Where is Crazy Nairobian?” is live.
