DP Gachagua Now Turns Gear To The Ministry of Interior Days After NIS Director Haji Expose
According to Gachagua, the Interior Ministry has facilitated the re-opening of bars in the region, in an effort to water down his long fought mission to end alcoholism in Mt Kenya.
He stated, “I heard that our local MP has directed security officers in Karatina, purportedly on orders from above to re-open bars. An MP cannot instruct security officers, if security officers from this region are taking instructions from an MP, we shall discipline them,”
“I have never missed a single cabinet sitting, so there is no decision that has been made by the cabinet to stop war against illicit brew,” he added.
He added: Anybody stopping that war or undermining it is setting the President and the government against the people. If you people at interior (Ministry) think that you want to interfere with this successful programme so as to undermine the Deputy President, you are effectively undermining President Ruto and his administration.
He warned President Ruto of the officers whose intention is to ‘set him up against the people’.
“Mr.President, if you allow overzealous officers at Harambee house, with a political scheme, to interfere with this war against illicit brew, those officers will set you up against the people.”
“You will be hurting Ruto and his government. The popularity or otherwise of our administration will depend on interference or non-interference with the war against illicit brews,” he added.
