Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen has been summoned to appear before the National Assembly next Wednesday amid mounting pressure following the death of blogger Albert Ojwang.

National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetang'ula issued the directive on Wednesday, June 18, during a tense parliamentary session that centred around police conduct.

Three MPs, Kabondo Kasipul MP Eve Obara, Manyatta MP Gitonga Mukunji and Rarieda MP Otiende Amollo, were particularly vocal against Murkomen, whom they accused of failing to do enough to ensure accountability of top security officials.

In response to the MPs demands, Wetang'ula summoned Murkomen for a fresh grilling session in a week's time, on Wednesday, June 25.
