NCIC Summons Gachagua Over Alleged Inciting Remarks
The National Cohesion and Integration Commission (NCIC) has summoned former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua to respond to remarks he allegedly made during several public engagements.
The commission is examining comments reportedly made in Luanda, Vihiga County, on June 12, in Kisii County on February 23, and at another public gathering in late July. NCIC is investigating whether the statements could constitute ethnic incitement, hate speech, or actions likely to undermine national cohesion.
The summons, issued under the National Cohesion and Integration Act, requires Gachagua to appear at the commission's offices at Britam Towers in Nairobi at 2:00 p.m. Failure to comply could result in an arrest warrant.
The move comes amid similar investigations involving other political leaders, including Homa Bay MP Peter Kaluma, as NCIC continues its efforts to address remarks that could threaten peaceful coexistence and national unity. #Gachagua #Vihiga #Kisii #muranga
