Police imposter Joshua Waiganjo tells it all in a prison dossier yet to be released



Joshua Waingajo, the man who made news headlines last year when he was sensationally kicked out of the police force as an imposter has written a prison dossier which he claims will shock many. 

In an interview with journalists over the weekend at the Naivasha Maximum Prison where he is being held, Waingajo who served as a senior police officer for several years claims that his memoirs which are yet to be published will bring to light all the web of deceit involving the police force as well as politicians.

Waingajo is faced with multiple charges which includes robbery with violence, possession of police uniforms and impersonation of a police officer.

The former taxi driver alleges that powerful forces are behind his arrest in a bid to hide the truth from the public.

“Since my arrest, there have been many unanswered questions,” he claimed. “The previous Government misled everybody and denied me a chance to speak out, watu wasijue ukweli. They succeeded and that’s why I decided I have to write a book, covering everything. I decided to even sacrifice my life, for people to know the truth. At the time of my arrest, I was in charge of Kenya Police Reservist in Rift Valley heading more than 6,000 reservists. As far as I am concerned, I still hold this position for I have not received a letter of sacking,” said Waiganjo.

In addition, Waiganjo also promised to tell a story that nobody has ever heard regarding the Baragoi massacre.

“Some officers were involved, together with local leaders in Baragoi with stealing cows which they would transport through Baringo to Nakuru and share the proceeds. They were not happy with the operation,” Waingajo sensationally claimed.

Waingajo claims that this is what led to his arrest in December last year and, he says since then, he has been busy putting together his memoirs which will cover his life before and after his arrest.

For instance, in chapter six of his book whose working title is  Goodbye Police Comrades!, Waingajo tells how he was allegedly conscripted as a police reservist in the year 2000.
