A section of Muslim leaders from Kilifi county has demanded that former Gender CS Aisha Jumwa apologise to the community after making defamatory remarks about the religion.
Jumwa, in several social media posts, condemned the religion for burying her kin at night, remarks that have not sat well with the Muslim leaders.
Speaking on Friday, the leaders alleged that Jumwa had no right to interfere in religious practices and should not take advantage of the incident to play political theatrics.
It is alleged that Zacharia Charo, a relative of the former CS, died from injuries he sustained from a mob beating after he allegedly killed a 75-year-old.
