Narok senator Ledama Olekina has been arrested by the officers of the national cohesion and integration commission over allegations of incitement. Olekina was arrested while leaving the studios of royal media services after an interview. He has been taken to Kilimani police station for questioning over his remarks during the building bridges initiative rally at William Ole Ntimana stadium in Narok on Saturday. During the BBI rally over the weekend, the legislator claimed that the members of the Maasai community had been sidelined in positions of leadership and that non?locals had encroached the maasai?dominated areas leaving them desperate. He also argued that non maasai’s should not be allowed to meddle in the affairs of the community.
