Lawmakers allied to Rigathi Gachagua have come out to criticize the National Cohesion and Integration Commission (NCIC) for reprimanding the former Deputy President.
Led by Gatanga Member of Parliament Edward Muriu, the MPs faulted the NCIC for what they termed as selective application of their mandate as they challenged the commission to remain impartial. "We demand that the NCIC applies its mandate uniformly, ensuring that all leaders, regardless of their political affiliations, are held accountable for statements that threaten national cohesion," Muriu said in his statement.
Tetu MP also echoed Muriu's sentiments, accusing the NCIC of overlooking some lawmakers allied to the Kenya Kwanza government who also have a knack for making explosive statements in public.
