“You’re a coward” DP Gachagua dares Matiang’i to fly back to Kenya to record a statement
DP Rigathi Gachagua asks former Interior CS, Fred Matiang’i, to return to Kenya and record a statement with the police
DP Rigathi Gachagua asks former Interior CS, Fred Matiang’i, to return to Kenya and record a statement with the police.
Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has urged former Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i to comply with the Directorate of Criminal Investigations’ summons and return to the country (DCI).
Gachagua claimed that Matiang’i was a coward for leaving the country for the UK while speaking at a rally on Friday, March 3.
According to him, the former CS fled after receiving a summons because he did not want to face the law about an alleged police search on his Karen house on February 8.
DP Gachagua advised Uhuru Kenyatta’s ally to comply with the summons, just like the majority of Kenya Kwenza leaders who were purportedly punished by Uhuru’s regime.
“He was called to record a simple statement but he decided to flee. Didn’t I tell you that these people were cowards?
“They came after us before the elections, but did we run? They arrested me and took away our property and we stayed put,” the DP stated.

On the other hand, he maintained that the Kenya Kwanza administration would not use the police to target those who were opposed to them before and during the 2022 General Election.
“Matiang’i suffers from hallucinations. He imagined the police arresting him. He thought we would send the police to him as they did to us.
“He (Matiang’i) could have asked me to teach him how to write a statement at DCI,” he stated.
However, according to Matiang’i’s lawyer, Danstan Omari, the former CS flew to the UK to attend to family matters.
He indicated that the former CS would return to the country after two weeks.
“There is nothing sinister about his travel. He is there to attend to an urgent private family matter and shall return to resume his ordinary routine as a private citizen,” the lawyer argued.
