The National Police Service (NPS) has ordered the immediate arrest of popular Mugithi musician and police officer Samuel Muchoki, popularly known as Samidoh, over alleged desertion of duty.
According to NPS sources, Samidoh has been absent from his post since May 27, 2025, following his redeployment to the Anti-Stock Theft Unit (ASTU) in Gilgil.
His failure to report to the new station and continued absence for over 10 days has prompted disciplinary action.
The directive follows recent controversy during one of his performances, where attendees were captured on video chanting anti-government slogans, an incident that reportedly triggered his abrupt transfer.
