Gatundu South MP Moses Kuria has
once again been summoned to appear before the National Cohesion and Integration
Commission over alleged hate remarks.
In a summon letter dated October 6,
the controversial MP was asked to appear before NCIC on Monday, October 9 at 11
am.
This follows remarks Kuria made on
September 25, asking the Inspector General of Police, Joseph Boinnet, to shoot
dead Opposition leader Raila Odinga and National Super Alliance supporters who
would break the law during anti-IEBC demonstrations.
Speaking during a campaign tour in
Nakuru, Kuria sought to remind the police that their role is to protect the
citizens, hence, should not allow the NASA team to continue causing chaos in
their protests aimed at pushing for reforms at the IEBC.
“Mr Boinnet, the gun you have is not
a pen. It has bullets and you should use it. The work of the police is to
protect the citizens. If Raila Amollo Odinga will be the first to break the law
tomorrow (September 26) then let him be shot dead,”
Kuria was captured saying, in a
video that went viral on social media.
Following the fresh summons, Kuria
on Saturday morning took to Facebook where he stated: “So there is such a thing
as inciting the police!”
Last month, on September 11, Moses
Kuria was arrested along with former Machakos Senator Johnson Muthama over
alleged hate speech.
Kuria was accused of directing
Kiambu residents to drive out opposition supporters who voted for NASA
presidential candidate Raila Odinga in the August 8 poll.
After spending the night at Pangani
police cells, Kuria and Muthama were arraigned in court and released on a cash
bail of Ksh 300,000 each.
