Wiper Party leader Kalonzo Musyoka on Friday called on President William Ruto to order an immediate investigation into the recent abductions witnessed across the country.
In a statement, the opposition principal attributed the abductions to impunity by rogue police officers who he claimed were on a mission to destroy the country’s future.
While calling for action, Kalonzo demanded that the said officers be brought before courts and held criminally liable for the alleged abduction cases.
“On behalf of Kenyans, I demand that the rogue police officers responsible for the abductions, kidnappings and executions, be brought before our courts,” commented the Wiper Party leader.

“They are responsible for the attempt to diminish, dismember and destroy our beloved Republic’s present and future.”
According to Kalonzo, the acts of abductions were meant to systematically limit, abuse, and silence Kenyans’ constitutionally guaranteed rights to free speech.
Kalonzo further told President Ruto to accept that he committed atrocities during the recent anti-government demonstrations.
The former Vice President claimed Ruto’s actions towards the demonstrating youths were inexplicable violations of moral and civic responsibilities against Kenyans.
“Our Founding Fathers’ and Mothers’ dream and vision of an independent, democratic, progressive and inclusive Republic is in peril,” stated the Azimio Principal.
Kalonzo’s sentiments towards Ruto come hours after the release of the three men who were in August abducted by unknown individuals in Kitengela, Kajiado County.
The President of the Law Society of Kenya (LSK) Faith Odhiambo while detailing the matter, revealed that the two brothers were dumped by their captors at the Gachie border of Kiambu and Nairobi.
“I am informed that Jamil Longton and his brother Aslam were dumped at the Gachie border of Kiambu and Nairobi by their captors. Every prayer and intervention made a difference. We thank God that they are safe,” stated the LSK boss.
