KENYA: Murkomen Accuses Gachagua of Intimidating Political Aspirants

By Moses Punyuah

Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen has launched a fresh attack on former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua, declaring that security agencies will closely monitor his activities until the 2027 General Election over claims that he is inciting violence.

“My business until Kenya crosses 2027 safely is to monitor your activities… You are my single most point of focus because of the threat you’re posing,” said Murkomen.

The CS also accused Gachagua of intimidating political aspirants and using illegally obtained funds to mobilize goons, warning that the government would “deal with him firmly.” Murkomen did not provide evidence to support the allegations.
