Deputy President Kithure Kindiki and Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen have said former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua must record a statement with investigative agencies upon his return from the United States of America.

Kindiki said his predecessor, who is on a tour of the US, must tell Kenyan authorities what he knows about terrorism networks in Kenya.

Two days ago, Gachagua alleged that the President William Ruto-led administration had links with terrorist groups, among them Somalia-based al Shabaab, and further alleged that he would share evidence with US authorities.

But yesterday, Prof Kindiki told Gachagua, who is still on his US tour, to prepare to give authorities evidence of his allegations while in a foreign country. "I hear there is a leader who spoke outside Kenya and claimed that he has information that will help us to thwart any attack by al Shabaab because they have information on who and where guns to terrorize Kenyans are being made," Prof Kindiki said during an empowerment fundraiser in Sitotwo, Elgeyo Marakwet County.
