Ni majibu ya Rais William Ruto kwa Raila Odinga aliyetaka wapelelezi hao kuchunguza mauaji ya aliyekuwa Meneja wa Mifumo ya TEHAMA wa Tume ya Uchaguzi IEBC mwaka 2017.
Ruto amesema "Hatuhitaji ushauri kutoka Scotland Yard kuondoa na kuvunja vitengo vya mauaji katika jeshi letu la polisi. Tunahitaji tu kuheshimu Katiba yetu,".
Upinzani umetoa wito kwa Serikali kuruhusu wachunguzi wa nje kusaidia upelelezi wa mauaji ya nje ya Mahakama ikiwemo mauaji yote yenye utata tangu kipindi Ruto akiwa Naibu Rais.
=====================
President William Ruto and opposition leader Raila Odinga have different stances over the ongoing investigations into extra-judicial killings, setting the two on a collision course. The President yesterday said the government would not involve foreign agencies in investigating or solving killings as demanded by Mr Odinga.
Kenya Kwanza Alliance MPs weighed on the issue, telling Mr Odinga to stop lecturing the government.
"We do not need advice from Scotland Yard to remove and disband murderous units in our police force. We just need to respect our Constitution,” President Ruto said at the Supreme Court during the launch of the State of the Judiciary Report 2021/22.
He said security agencies have the mandate to protect the sovereignty and security of the country.
“Supporting a professional police force will guarantee the lives of every Kenyan and the security of our property. It will rid the country of the menace of extra-judicial killings. We certainly do not need the support of institutions built by others. We can build our own institutions,” the President said.
Mr Odinga yesterday repeated his calls for an expanded investigation into extra-judicial killings to include those that happened when Dr Ruto was the Deputy President in the Jubilee government. Mr Odinga and other opposition leaders accused the new regime of using the ongoing investigations into extra-judicial killings to pursue a vendetta against key officials of the Uhuru Kenyatta administration.
He wants the setting up of a transparent, professional and inclusive public inquest to assist the country and the affected families determine the fate or whereabouts of victims who disappeared or died under unclear circumstances.
Mr Odinga cited International Criminal Court (ICC) witnesses and Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission officials who died mysteriously.
