Tuesday, June 11, 2024 - Murang’a County Senator Joe Nyutu has urged President William Ruto’s government to stop being petty and instead pay former President Uhuru Kenyatta his retirement benefits and perks.
Speaking on Tuesday, Nyutu said that the former president
does not pose a threat to the sitting President to justify the refusal of his
benefits, saying the two should dialogue.
The senator called for investigations to determine the real
cause of why the former president has not been paid his retirement benefits.
“Why wouldn't they talk? I don't think the sitting President is that vengeful.
"It's simply a matter of differing views,’’ he said.
“I want to be clear: I firmly believe that the former
President should receive his rightful dues and that his office should be
supported by the state as mandated by law.’’
The retired President’s office on Monday claimed that Uhuru
was being denied his retirement benefits by the Kenya Kwanza government with
some staff going without salaries.
Through his spokesperson Kanze Dena, Uhuru claimed that his cars
were being fuelled from his pocket with the government refusing to also
allocate him an office.
