In a recent X-space session, Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta addressed the swirling rumors surrounding a Cabinet Secretary (CS) allegedly being cornered in the Gulf with ill-gotten funds. The claims had gained traction on social media and in certain circles, prompting the President’s response.
The President categorically denied the allegations, emphasizing the importance of separating facts from baseless claims. He urged Kenyans to exercise discernment and rely on verified information rather than succumbing to sensationalism.
Deputy President William Ruto also weighed in on the matter, labeling the assertion as a falsehood. Speaking at a press conference earlier today, Ruto emphasized the need for responsible journalism and cautioned against spreading unverified rumors. “We must uphold the integrity of our institutions,” he asserted.
The CS at the center of the controversy has not yet issued a statement, but sources close to the government indicate that an internal investigation is underway. The Gulf incident remains shrouded in mystery, with conflicting reports emerging from various quarters.
As the nation awaits further developments, citizens are reminded to approach such claims with a critical eye. In an era of rapid information dissemination, fact-checking and due diligence are essential to maintaining public trust.
