Suna East Member of Parliament Junet Mohammed has revealed that he will file a motion in parliament to have former Public Service CS Justin Muturi summoned.
He was Speaking on Saturday where he claimed that while Muturi was making an exposé on President William Ruto, he painted himself as flawless, yet he had his shortcomings.
According to Junet, Muturi is alleged to be behind the supposed inflation in the cost of constructing Bunge Towers, which was initially budgeted at Ksh6 billion but allegedly skyrocketed to Ksh27 billion during his tenure as Speaker of the National Assembly.
”As an MP, I want to bring forward a motion to summon the former CS so that he can explain to us how the construction of Bunge Towers, which we had budgeted to cost Ksh6 billion, ended up costing Ksh27 billion when he was leaving office. I want him to explain this to parliament,” the MP said.
Bunge Towers building was officially occupied by Members of Parliament in April 2024, after 14 years of construction. The construction, which began in 2010, was initially expected to be completed in 2016 but was delayed until 2024, 14 years later.
The tower, located directly across from the Parliament buildings, features a tunnel and 28 floors, equipped with a wide range of state-of-the-art facilities for MPs and staff.
The building has four basement floors with parking spaces for up to 350 vehicles. Other facilities in the building include an up-to-date health club that includes cardio sections, massage rooms, steam baths, sauna, reflexology, manicure, and pedicure facilities.
Junet went on to assert that Muturi’s frequent remarks on television and exposés should be directed to the Director of Criminal Investigations (DCI) rather than the media
“Muturi has been speaking a lot, saying a lot of things, but I’d like to say, all this information should be taken to the DCI and EACC for investigations,” he added.
