Deputy President Kithure Kindiki has called on investigating agencies to record statements from his predecessor, Rigathi Gachagua, over claims he made during his US tour linking President William Ruto and the Kenyan government to terrorist activities.
According to DP Kindiki, Gachagua's statements will help the security agencies gather intelligence to counter the alleged planned terrorist attacks. "I hear there is a leader who spoke outside Kenya and said they have information that can help us pre-empt any attack by Al-Shabaab because they have information on who and where plans to terrorise Kenyans are being made," said Kindiki. "We therefore want to ask the relevant agencies to make sure that the people who are saying they have information on terrorists and criminals are held accountable, and they must record their statement so that they can help investigations to protect Kenya from harm," he added.
