Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen has revealed that several arrests were made and vehicles impounded after Nairobi County officials dumped waste at Stima Plaza in a retaliatory attack.
Speaking during a press briefing on Thursday, Murkomen said that despite popular belief that the National Police Service had not intervened to cool down the situation, they had arrested several of the suspected perpetrators and impounded some of the vehicles involved.
Flanked by the Inspector General of Police, Douglas Kanja, and the Director of Criminal Investigations, Mohammed Amin, the CS condemned the act, describing it as "primitive" and a threat to public health. "You come and dump waste so that people can contract diseases like cholera?
That was uncalled for and uncouth.
