CORD party national chairman John Mbadi and
Homa Bay town MP Peter Kaluma, on
Saturday, June 18, said that they have
received some information from people are
plotting to assassinate former Prime Minister.
Mbadi claimed said he got the information
from a section of jubilee leaders.
“ A plot to kill Raila is in the public domain
but we have sources who have disclosed to
us that it is for political reasons. We are
asking for the security of Raila to be beefed
up to ensure that his life is protected ,”
Mbadi said.
Mbadi accused the Jubilee of detaining CORD
MPs as well as those from the ruling coalition
to divert the attention of Kenyans when plans
of killing the opposition leader are being
planned secretly.
He told the inspector general of police Joseph
Boinnet ensure Kenyans of Raila’s security is
enhanced.
Mbadi was speaking in Magunga, Suba
constituency.
“ Matters of security about leaders of Raila’s
calibre should not be doubted. Boinnet must
do his job by reinforcing his (Raila’s)
security detail ,” he said.
At the same time, Kaluma, during a funds
drive for Homa Bay Central SDA Church, also
claimed that the IG should handle the
assassination rumours of prominet leader with
due seriousness.
“ Robert Ouko, Tom Mboya, JM Kariuki and
Odhiambo Mbayi did not just die, there were
rumours. The government should investigate
these claims,” Kaluma said.
He also asked the director of criminal
investigations Ndegwa Muhoro to carry out
the investigations.
“ As the opposition leader, his security
should be beefed up. The death of Raila
through assassination can be very
disastrous to this country ,” Kaluma added.
Gatundu South legislator Moses Kuria was in
trouble again after his remarks about Coalition
for Reforms and Democracy (CORD) leader
Raila Odinga’s killing.
The MP made the remarks at a rally held in
Kasarani on Sunday, June 12 which led him to
be detained for three days.
However, on Friday, June 17, he was forgiven
by Raila.
