“We are not sparing anyone on this. The Internal Security Cabinet Secretary Kithure Kindiki was clear concerning the financiers and politicians who orchestrated the ugly scene, we are summoning even elected leaders so long as they are suspected to be part of the organizers” he said
The news follows heckles during the President’s visit targeting the county Governor Hillary Barchok who was denied an opportunity to address the people.
President William Ruto was agitated by the move as his Deputy called on restrain calling on residents to resort to such behaviour atleast when the Head of State has left.
