Interior Cabinet Secretary Dr. Karanja Kibicho has refuted claims that he has reported Deputy President William Ruto to The Director Of Criminal Investigation George Kinoti over harassment.
The controversial PS Dr.Kibicho for the first time spoke out on the matter in which his name has been adversely mentioned and also published by various news channels, terming the allegations spurious and unworthy of his time.
“It is utter nonsense,”Dr Kibicho told a local newspaper. “I have not made any complaint to anyone. There are people out there hawking falsehoods and they will be embarrassed,” he said.
Dr Kibicho coming clean to refute the claims are more likely to change the tune of the brewing enmity between the Office of the Deputy President and The Interior Ministry.
The Deputy President and PS Kibicho have been in bruising clashes with a section of Ruto’s allies even pushing his ouster.
In a recent attack, Elgeyo Marakwet Senator castigated Kibicho linking him George Saitoti’s death. He also accused as the main man responsible for choreographing the assassination plot against Ruto.
Murkomen further claimed that Kibicho is the one funding the anti-Ruto groups including Kieleweke and Embrace Kenya.
