Human rights lobby group, Haki
Africa has called for resignation of
commissioners of the National and Integration
Commission (NCIC) alleging that they have
failed to deliver.
In a press release sent to media on Tuesday,
Haki Africa executive director Hussein Khalid
said the commission led by Francis Ole Kaparo
has failed to ensure cohesion and integration.
He noted that the commission cannot be
trusted to bring to book those who make
inciting remarks especially politicians who have
been spreading hate speech cross the country.

"In what appears to be the toothless barking of
a dog, it seems as if politicians are beating the
drums of war yet the commission is only giving
statements.
"As an organization, HAKI Africa believes the
NCIC has failed to do its work in particular
ensuring that politicians adhere to chapter 6 of
the constitution of Kenya on integrity,’’ read the
press release in part.
This comes as six legislators led by Gatundu
South Member of Parliament Moses Kuria,
Suna East’s Junet Mohammed and Machakos
senator Johnston Muthama on Tuesday
recorded statements with Criminal
Investigations Department CID for allegedly
making inflammatory remarks.
