Is Deputy President William Ruto out to hide something with regards to the ongoing probe into the alleged millions lost to the various Dam scandals that have rocked the Nation lately?
Well, Ruto has been on the defensive end with the DP apparently angry with a number of Investigative agencies led by the DCI for failing to conduct proper investigations into a number of scandals that have recently rocked the Country.
The DP has particularly been angered by the fact that the said figures lost in the various Dam scandals have been exaggerated.
For Instance, Ruto insists that only 7 billion was lost in the Arror and Kimwarer dam scandal. This comes even as the DCI insists that the money is 7 billion shillings.
Ruto’s apparent defence of corruption has not gone well with ANC Party leader Musalia Mudavadi who has called out the DP for interfering with the work of Investigative agencies.
According to Mudavadi, Ruto has admitted there is a problem, but is now debating on the quantum of the problem.”
Mudavadi accused Ruto of intimidating DCI George Kinoti by trying to imply he is not doing his job professionally.
“Why not allow the investigative agencies to do their job? Why is DCI George Kinoti and the EACC calling people, demanding documents associated with this project?” he asked. The ANC boss spoke to reporters after a church service at JCC Parklands.
Yesterday, Mudavadi said Ruto’s remarks were a sign that ‘somebody somewhere is beginning to panic’ adding that “by implication, the sentiments are showing that someone doesn’t want the DCI to work independently.”
“We should allow the DCI and the EACC to do their job. They are trained to do it, the politician is trained to talk not do the investigative work. Why are people nervous?” he said.
