The country has witnessed a rise in political temperatures over the last couple of days as various politicians angle to succeed president Uhuru Kenyatta when his tenure as the head of state comes to an end in August this year.
As that happens, allegations have started doing rounds with both deputy president William Ruto’s camp and Raila Odinga’s Azimio la umoja camp having seen fingers pointed at them.
Today, the national police service has finally acted on orders of the office of public prosecution by arresting Kitutu Chache member of parliament Richard Onyonka and taken in for questioning.
The lawmaker stands accused of after making remarks that made inferences to the 2007 – 2008 post election violence, with some section of kenyans interpreting it to mean possible incitement.
The legislator has been moved to Kisii police station to shed more light on the allegations. This comes few days after the arrest of Meru county senator Mithika Linturi over similar allegations.
