Thursday, January 16, 2025 – Former Police Spokesperson Charles Owino blasted Public Service Cabinet Secretary Justin Muturi over his attacks on President William Ruto and his government over the abduction of his son.
Speaking
during an interview, Owino faulted Muturi, saying he was in the Cabinet,
and publicly condemning the abductions was not in order.
According
to Owino, Muturi’s action amounts to a breach of trust bestowed upon him by President Ruto
who appointed him.
He
noted that if Muturi was not comfortable serving in the Kenya Kwanza government,
he should ship out.
"Usually
what happens in the Cabinet meeting is that when you leave and a decision is
made, you have only two alternatives to go by that decision if not to
resign," he stated.
According
to Owino, there are well-laid-out communication protocols between the President
and security agencies like the National Intelligence Service (NIS), dismissing
the claims that Ruto was directly involved in the abduction of Muturi's son.
"NIS
reports to the National Security Council as well as to the head of the republic
and shares their security reports to the organs of the country, including the
Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) and the National Police
Service," he explained, distancing Ruto from the abduction saga.
While
Owino acknowledged there might be divergent opinions in the cabinet, it is not
proper for a CS appointed by the President to air the differences publicly.
"The
CS has been an attorney general and member of the National Security
Council. He got the information that his child was with NIS and went to the
president," he explained, noting it was a show of trust and respect.
Owino
defended the NIS, saying it is a crucial agency in the country.
