Former Chief Justice and Presidential hopeful David Maraga has issued four demands to President William Ruto following his remarks that Parliament is a corrupt institution.

In a statement on Wednesday, August 20, he acknowledged that the MPs were certainly corrupt, but the same was true for the President himself. "When President William Ruto stood before the country and accused Members of Parliament of demanding money from governors, ministers, and other state officers appearing before them, he cracked open a door that those in power usually keep firmly shut," he stated. "It was an extraordinary admission.

But it cannot stand alone.

If the President can publicly point fingers at Parliament, then he must also open himself to the same scrutiny.
