“I am currently being held at the Karen Police Station since yesterday without bail. A Nigerian national came to my house, attacked and assaulted me. He was abusive to my wife and daughter.
"He has paid the OCS at Karen Police Station to hold me here illegally without bail. I got a P3 form of the assault but the police officers have managed to take it out of my bag and instead replaced it with blank papers,” Budi said.

“I’ve been assaulted in my own country by a Nigerian national who came to my house! with no protection from the police or Kenyan government,” Budi wrote on his Instagram.
Budi further called on the Independent Policing Oversight Authority (IPOA) to investigate his plight.
Efforts to reach the Karen Police OCS for clarification were futile as our calls went unanswered by the time of publishing this piece.
