Monday, November 25, 2024 – President William Ruto is seriously considering appointing one of his close friends as the next Interior Cabinet Secretary.
This was revealed by Embakasi
Central MP Benjamin Gathiru, alias Mejja Donk, who revealed that he had
obtained reliable information that Cabinet Secretaries Kipchumba Murkomen and
Davis Chirchir were being considered for the Ministry of Interior docket.
Speaking during a church service
at AIPCA Kangari in Murang'a County, Gathiru revealed that his intel indicated
that one of the two was considered for the role as a thank-you
gift for bringing in the controversial Indian company, Adani Holdings, to
Kenya.
Gathiru also alleged that both
Murkomen and Chirchir played an important role in bringing in the Adani Group
to land a deal with the government.
''Those two ministers who were
in the Energy and Transport dockets, they are the ones who signed with Adani
saying that the company was good and therefore could be sold for the airport.
Today, I have information that one of them is lined up for the Ministry of
Interior job,’’ Gathiru revealed.
Gathiru, who is also an ally of
former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua, claimed that the plan to move
one of the two to the influential Interior docket was a strategy to allow the
government to bring Adani back through the back door.
''They want to get one of those
ministers who brought Adani to the Ministry of Interior so that when Adani
makes a comeback, he can be well hidden,’’ he noted.
The Cabinet
reorganization seems to be in the offing, with Prime Cabinet Secretary
Musalia Mudavadi currently holding more than 2 dockets in the ministries of
Interior, Gender, and Foreign Affairs.
