There was high drama in Kabuchai village, Bungoma County as two state officers clashed over the issue of rampant abductions.
The Bungoma County Governor George Natembeya had asked the state to stop abductions and extrajudicial killings of youth when Kikuyu MP Kimani Ichung’wah latched on him with a request to produce the abductors, since he appeared to know who they are.
According to Ichung’wah, the recent abductions were perpetrated by politicians who wanted to blame Ruto’s administration.
President William Ruto also jumped into the fray maintaining that those responsible for abductions will be held to account.
Speaking in Bungoma County after the two leaders clashed over the recent abductions at the burial of Moses Wetangula’s mother, Maayi Nanyama, Ruto reiterated earlier claims that his government will not allow extrajudicial killings.
He noted that the police under the leadership of the Inspector General of Police Douglas Kanja were aware of what needed to be done.
The President noted that the agencies were independent adding that the government would support them in their investigations.
“We have made it absolutely clear that any criminality must be investigated whether undertaken by citizens, criminals or by the police. It must be investigated. That is my direction and I will repeat it again,” he stated.
“Anybody in breach must live with the consequences of the law. The IG, Deputy IG, and the DPP know what to do. They run independent institutions and will support them.”
According to Ichung’wah, the recent abductions were perpetrated by politicians who wanted to blame Ruto’s administration.
“I say this with a very heavy heart. For a leader to stand here and say people are abducting and killing themselves, is unfortunate. It is not for this hallowed grounds. Our children are getting lost and killed; that is the position.” Natembeya stated.
“It is not to say that there are no abductions. Abductions are there. Governor Natembeya, if you know the abductors, you are an officer and you have been a regional commissioner. Give information to the DCI for them to investigate,” Ichung’wah responded.
