Interior CS Kithure Kindiki has heaped praises on President William Ruto, claiming that he will transform the country like retired President the late Mwai Kibaki.

Speaking at the Kenya Assemblies of God (KAG) church in Sagana Town, Kirinyaga County, Kindiki claimed that the President was dependent on God to enable him to solve Kenya’s problems.

“He (Ruto) depends on God to enable him to solve our problems. I know President William Ruto will not leave Kenya where he found it. President Ruto will take Kenya very far just like the late President Mwai Kibaki who met Kenya at zero and in ten years President Kibaki left Kenya in a very good place,” Kindiki said.

The CS also promised to deal with rogue churches operating cult-like movements in the guise of Christian/spiritual activities.

“All the crooks and criminals who are hiding in the church of Jesus Christ and those who are hiding in other religions your time is up we will smoke you out,” Kindiki added.

Kindiki on Shakahola

This comes even as the CS announced the resumption of the exhumation of bodies on Monday in Shakahola, where hundreds of controversial preacher Paul Mackenzie died after being influenced to fast to death.

“We have lost many people, we have exhumed 242 bodies so far, of people who were starved to death, hit with blunt and sharp objects or strangled,” the CS said.

Kindiki promised that the Shakahola incident would be the last of such kind to occur in the country.
