https://t.co/gnY9bmSkDJJubilee Party vice chair David Murathe said investigating a former president could push the country towards a coup.
He noted that such actions are punitive and may lead to a supremacy battle, the likes of which have never been seen in Kenya.
“Uhuru Kenyatta will be Kenya’s only surviving former president after August 9. Now you tell us that you want to subject him to prosecution and torture ?” posed Murathe.
The first president of Kenya, Mzee Jomo Kenyatta died in 1978, Daniel Moi who succeed him passed away in 2020 while Mwai Kibaki died this year
Speaking on Tuesday at K24, he explained that such actions are a recipe for chaos because both the former and the sitting president have networks in the military and police.
“This is where you get coups and counter coups because when the elected president comes and starts harassing former presidents, remember these people have supporters and networks including the police and the army,” Murathe added.
