President William Ruto’s statements about the suspected plan to kill outgoing IEBC head Wafula Chebukati are political.
City lawyer Danstan Omari said the comment should have been made at a political gathering.
“The President got it right, but the message was not to be done the way he did it. It could have been done at a political rally in Kamukunji or elsewhere,” he said on National Television.
Omari said Kenyan politicians should focus on cutting the cost of living.
On Tuesday, Ruto said that there was a plot to kidnap, torture, and kill Chebukati at the Bomas of Kenya.
Ruto claimed the conspiracy was hatched by a political syndicate in charge of the presidential succession as the ultimate move to impose their favored candidate on Kenyans.
Ruto stated that Chebukati’s assassination would open the way for the people’s will to be overturned.
