Nyaoga gives Raila until Monday to retract Eurobond claims

demand that Hon Raila forthwith retracts his baseless and unwarranted allegations failure whereof we have instructions to institute legal action against him.”

Professor Ndung’u, the former CBK Governor, said he had retained lawyer Donald Kipkorir on the matter, while National Treasury Cabinet Secretary Rotich termed the release of the so called ‘Eurobond names’ by Odinga as an act of ‘economic sabotage’.

While discounting the CORD leader’s assertion that the proceeds of the Eurobond were unaccounted for, Rotich pointed out that the Opposition leader’s statements will keep away investors.

In a statement, he emphasised the need for the Kenyan people to hold him to account for lost opportunities now and in the future.

“Despite these ongoing processes, Hon Raila Odinga has persistently been making allegations that the proceeds of the Eurobond were stolen or unaccounted for. However, when asked to provide any evidence which could assist the investigative Arms of Government, he has failed consistently,” he pointed out.

“Raila Odinga has relied on outright lies, and subversion of the truth for political gain and at the expense of the Kenyan economy.

Rotich has not indicated if he intends to seek legal redress.
