Former Sports Cabinet Secretary Rashid Echesa’s woes continue to pile up as the days go by.

Echesa is still nursing the wounds of his sack by President Kenyatta but even before the wounds can completely heal, Kenyan authorities are again on his neck and this time because of guns.

The former CS on Sunday had visitors at his home in the form of armed police officers who were in search of guns.

The CS was on Sunday Night graced with the presence of DCI detectives from the Special Crime Prevention Unit.

The police are allowed to record an inventory of items they recover in such operations at any police station soon after the raid.

Echesa was sacked from President Uhuru Kenyatta’s Cabinet on March 1. No reason was given.

When reached for comments, Echesa denied that any raid took place before later admitting that he indeed had an encounter with the police.
