Narok
county senator Stephen Ole Ntutu and MPs Patrick Ntutu, Korei ole Lemein and
Jonah Ngeno have been ordered to record statements with CID on alleged charges
of incitement.
The
leaders have been accused of having uttered sentiments that bordered on
incitement during two public rallies held in Narok town and at Olololunga
trading centre on two different days last month.
Senator
Ntutu’s group has of late openly condemned the Narok governor Samuel ole Tunai
style of leadership and even went ahead to accuse him of mismanagement of huge
amount of funds earmarked for various development activities in the county.
During
the two well-attended rallies-cum-street demonstrations, the leaders had organised to condemn the
governor they threatened to mobilise their supporters and forcibly evict the
governor from office if he failed to voluntarily resign.
It
took intervention of President Uhuru Kenyatta who summoned the Narok
leaders particularly those opposed to the governor led by Senator Ntutu to
State House from where the president promised to investigate in 21 days the
allegations they had raised against the governor.
However,
before the time frame set by the president expired the Ntutu-led group
organised a huge rally at Olololunga trading centre from where this time
they threatened to organise the mother
of all demonstrations against the governor.
Conspicuously
missing in the list of the summoned to the county CID office to record
statement is Narok North MP Moitalel ole Kenta although he has been vocal
during the two meetings alongside others.
Their
lawyer Martin ole Kamwaro requested the detectives to give his clients time to
prepare their defence statements and promised to report back on January 8.
