The NCIC called Gachagua for the remarks he made to warn about the possibility of chaos during the 2027 general election.
The essence of the controversy is a complex opinion that Gachagua made during the interview, in which he warned that if the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) interrupted the 2027 elections, the violence will make the post -2007 elections appear “Christmas party.”
NCIC chairman Samuel Kobia explained that there was nothing to celebrate the death, adding that the commission was cooperating with other government agencies to hold Gachagua.
Why does Gaida not respect the NCIC call
In a rebellious response through his attorney, Kibe Mungai, Gachagua accused the NCIC, stressing that the commission was involved in law enforcement.
The former MP first opposed the commission first to follow the presidential partners William Rutowho claimed to have made many inflammatory statements without any consequences.
The Gachagua Lawyers team has emphasized that its statements were protected under section 33 of the Constitution, which ensures freedom of expression.
In his detailed letter, Mungai held that Gachagua was not provoking violence but warning against him.
He said that the former deputy president has a constitutional responsibility under Articles 3, 38, and 91 to defend democracy and to comply with the wishes of the people.
“Our client warned that if the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission attempts to undermine the 2027 elections, the country could be affected by a worse violence than in 2007. noted Mungai.
