Sacked Commissioner-General of the Kenya Prisons Service Wycliffe Ogallo called and cancelled a press conference he had assembled at his Lang’ata Ngei Phase 2,home.
The embattled boss, who was sacked over laxity that saw hardcore terrorists escape from Kamiti Maximum Prison, wanted to spill the beans on his ordeal and termination of his contract.
Journalists were chased away by plain clothed police officers and told they would be informed of any new developments.
Brigadier John Kibaso has already replaced the sacked Prisons boss confirming a growing trend of militaty deployment to sensitive positions.
Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i vowed to investigate the escape, terming it a laxity in prison management.
“We will not only go the direction investigations will point us but we will act resolutely to ensure this kind of recklessness does not happen again because it exposes our people. Definitely, there is a certain level of irresponsibility we have to deal with in this particular case," he added.
