Interior CS Kipchumba Murkomen has directed former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua to record a statement upon his return to Kenya, following controversial remarks he made concerning alleged terrorism plots.
Speaking on Saturday at the Keiyo South Economic Empowerment Program, the CS revealed that the former DP will be compelled to record a statement and provide a detailed explanation of the terrorism plots he has been alleging while in the US. "He thinks that he is going to parade issues of terrorism in America to get votes," Murkomen said. "I want to say, without fear of contradiction, because he has said that he has information and he knows, and that he has an agent who is holding meetings with Al-Shabaab, as soon as he lands in Kenya, he must record a statement to tell us exactly which meetings he is having with terrorists," Murkomen stated.
