Laikipia Ebola centre is Ruto's plan to wipe out Mt Kenya community - Gachagua
The Democracy for the Citizens Party (DCP) leader, Rigathi Gachagua, has alleged that the planned establishment of an Ebola quarantine facility at the Laikipia Air Base in Nanyuki is a scheme by President William Ruto to wipe out the Mt Kenya community.
Speaking during the Consultative meeting with DCP Party aspirants from Meru County, Gachagua questioned why the President agreed with the American government to establish such a facility in the country.
He noted that the Ebola Virus poses a huge threat to the population if found in Kenya.
“We have every reason to believe that this Ebola centre is a strategic plan by William Ruto to wipe out the Mt Kenya community and, more so, the people of Meru and Laikipia,” he noted.
“The American government has said that its citizens shouldn’t be taken to their home because of the danger and risk of that virus spreading and affecting a huge population.”

“This Ebola, we’ve been told by the World Health Organisation, has no vaccine and is likely to kill 50% of those who have been affected. Bringing it to the mountain is an existential threat to the lives of our people.”
The former Deputy President wondered why the elected representatives of Meru have remained silent on the matter, terming them ‘fake’.
“To our shock and horror, all elected Members of Parliament are quiet.
The Senator has said nothing, MPs, fake governor, fake Deputy President have said nothing, the people of Meru are on their own,” he noted.
“We don’t want this Ebola centre anywhere in Kenya. Let the Americans take it to America or another country.”
