Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has publicly accused President William Ruto of secretly meeting with leaders of the Somali terror group Al-Shabaab.
During his continued visit of the United States, Gachagua said that Ruto attended a secret night meeting with three Al-Shabaab leaders in Mandera to discuss "business interests".
"Why are you working for Al-Shabaab? Why did you meet with three of their leaders in Mandera? Gachagua posed.
Even more damaging, Gachagua claimed that American intelligence agencies have identified the supposed meeting and are "demanding explanations" from the Kenyan government.
Gachagua also raised an alarm over President Ruto’s decision to scrap the vetting requirement for non-Kenyans before issuing national ID cards, calling it a “grave national security risk.”
“The Americans are concerned. Without vetting, terrorists can easily register as Kenyan citizens and use that status to access the U.S and carry out attacks,” Gachagua warned.
He painted a dire picture of a Government increasingly compromising national and international security, allegedly for political or financial gain.
