Nairobi police halt protest to Parliament

The National Security Advisory Committee has accused USAID of funding some individuals including ‘a defrocked pastor’ to slander parliamentarians.

“These plans include demos clandestinely planned, funded and led by Boniface M and John G (completion of investigations will reveal their full identities). A defrocked pastor has also been funded to pour vitriol on Parliament concurrently.”

Kimemia who is also the Secretary to the Cabinet further warned that plans to destabilise the government would not be condoned.

“The consistent plans to destabilise the current Government will not be tolerated at any costs, especially where activists are sustainably bribed to tarnish the country’s and leaders’ reputation regionally and internationally,” he went on to say.

He pointed out that it is a matter of national interest that USAID responds to these reports, in tandem with international protocols that regulate tolerance or expulsion of agencies that undermine the sovereignty of a legitimate and democratic Government.

Last month, USAID was in the spotlight again after lawyer Karim Khan for William Ruto told the International Criminal Court that the agency was using proxy civil societies to get witnesses for the court.

Khan also accused former US ambassador Michael Ranneberger of trying to get individuals to give evidence against Ruto before the ICC.

Capital FM News was still awaiting a response from USAID and the US Embassy in Nairobi over the accusations.
