Murkomen cautions youth on social media misuse, supports Kahariri’s ‘Ruto must go’ warning

Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen has warned Kenyan youth against misusing social media amid the ongoing debate on last week’s comments by Chief of Defence Forces General Charles Kahariri on the ‘Ruto must go’ campaign.

General Kahairi and NIS boss Noordin Haji condemned the movement which Kenyan youth have sustained since last year’s protests against President William Ruto’s government, sparking criticism over their involvement in politics.

On Sunday, CS Murkomen, however, defended Kahariri and Haji, saying youth should listen to them and refrain from “social media arguments” that he said could jeopardise Kenya’s political stability.

“Those two gentlemen are speaking from information and are warning you about the future of your country. You are making social media arguments here and there,” Murkomen told a service at the African Inland Church in Makutano, Meru.

“The future of a country needs order, otherwise, we will be in the same situation with our neighbours, sitting in refugee camps.”

The minister echoed Kahariri’s remarks on removing political leaders from office, saying youth should stick to constitutional methods.

“During elections, there is how to remove someone from office. There is also impeachment and jails if someone breaks the law,” Murkomen said.

At the same time, the Interior CS said the government would set up a security base in Samburu to tame banditry and cattle rustling in surrounding areas, as well as introduce what he called modern, technology-driven techniques to combat insecurity.

“We will harness the power of technology where security officers are not physically needed there. We shall introduce surveillance equipment which monitors these bandits at their hideouts and then tackle them from these,” Murkomen said.
