Friday, August 30, 2024 - Kenya Law School President Joshua Okayo has told President William Ruto not to lie to Kenyans that there were no abductions and extrajudicial killings when police were dealing with Gen Z protestors in June and July.
In an interview with Citizen TV on Friday, Okayo criticized
President William Ruto, calling it a "very big shame" for the
President to claim during the Kisumu Townhall meeting on Thursday that there
were no police abductions or killings during the Gen Z protests.
Okayo referenced his own abduction by alleged security
personnel, highlighting that he was one of the lucky few to escape death.
Okayo was reportedly abducted by police on June 26, during
the peak of the anti-Finance Bill demonstrations. Three days later, he was
found abandoned near Maragua River in Murang'a County, showing signs of
torture.
“I remember that the same day I went missing, Denzel Omondi
went missing and unfortunately he was found dead in some quarry dump.
“These are real issues and experiences and this is a lived
experience so when the President says he is not aware of any abductions, it is
very sad," Okayo said
"I would advise the President to sit down reflect on
his leadership and the occurrences in the last three months and actually
decide.
“Now that he calls himself a very prayerful man please let
him sit down, pray and get back to the person that we thought he was,” Okayo
added.
