Former Public Service Cabinet Secretary Justin Muturi has taken aim at President William Ruto, accusing him of contradicting himself over who is responsible for the recent wave of abductions in Kenya. "On December 28 last year, the president said in Homabay that he would end abductions.

But in October, while in Kisumu, he said he didn't know anyone who had been abducted.

Then on Monday this week, he told a foreign journalist that abductees had reunited with their families," said Muturi on Spice FM on Thursday, May 15.

The former CS criticised Ruto's comments as insensitive, especially his claim that all abductees had been reunited with their families, a statement Muturi says dismisses the pain of families still searching for loved ones.
