Kimani Mbugua’s Father Sets the Record Straight: He’s Not in Custody

Kimani Mbugua’s father has clarified that his son is not being held against his will at the rehab facility where he’s receiving treatment, despite what Kimani claimed in a recent viral video.

The 28-year-old’s father explained that Kimani is still in recovery, even if his son believes otherwise, which is why they have not authorized his discharge.

Addressing Kimani’s request for release, his father shared, “I’m his dad, and I care deeply…sijamfunga (I haven’t locked him up),” explaining that, while Kimani’s health has improved, more progress is needed before he can leave on his own.

“We’ll take him out the same way we brought him in; he can’t leave by himself. So, Kimani, my son and dear friend, calm down, calm down. As your dad, I know you… I know that when you’re in this state, if we’re not careful, you might mean well but end up doing something harmful,” he explained in an interview with YouTuber Vikie Vikinah.

A day earlier, Kimani, a former Citizen TV journalist, had appealed for his release from the medical facility, saying he felt fully recovered. He urged those responsible for his discharge to let him go, stating, “Hi everyone. I just wanted to ask whoever is responsible for my release to please let me go. My mom and dad came here two months ago and told me it’s not up to them.”

He went on to explain that he was officially cleared for discharge on September 25
