Nakuru, Kenya: Kericho Senator Charles Keter has reiterated that top government officials accused of coaching witnesses to implicate Deputy President William Ruto at the International Criminal Court should resign or be forced out.
Speaking in Nakuru Thursday, the Senator, a close ally of the Deputy President said he stands by the statement he made in Kericho over the weekend.
“What I said, I will maintain it during the day and at night. The people I talked about know themselves. It is not about tribe,” he added
The statement has rocked the Jubilee Alliance with National Assembly Majority Leader Aden Duale denying claims that powerful people in the administration of President Kibaki government coached witnesses to fix Ruto over the 2008 post-election violence.
Keter said nobody is being targeted as the people he was talking about know themselves.
“The people I am talking about know themselves. I chose to say it in Church because that is where one can speak the truth,” Keter told the Media after attending a Senator’s Forum at a Nakuru Hotel with county executives from Bomet.
