A city businessman-cum-Tiktoker was arrested on Wednesday by plain-clothed detectives from the Directorate of Criminal Investigation for allegedly posting a TikTok video inciting violence against police officers.

In a viral video seen by Kenyans.co.ke, the officers were seen forcefully removing the TikToker from the offices of his logistics company at Kimathi House.

Hours after the video went viral, DCI released a report announcing the arrest of Godfrey Mwasiaga Kakan Maiyo, claiming that he was behind a viral video inciting the public against police officers.

Mayo, who boasts over 25,000 followers on TikTok, often utilises his platform to call out police brutality and governance failures, as well as market his logistics company.
