Wednesday, June 26, 2024 –Calls to see the current National Intelligence Service (NIS) Director General Noordin Haji resign have emerged.
Haji is accused of failing to share vital and timely information with the head of State so that to help in management of the nation amid increased chaos resulting from the controversial Finance Bill 2024.
Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua on Wednesday June 26, said the current NIS boss had failed the president what led to the Tuesday violence from the Gen Zs who are against the Finance Bill that President Ruto’s administration has been pushing through.
In his live press conference held in Nairobi on Wednesday, the DP clashed with NIS boss saying, as of today, the country has a disjointed intelligence system leading to broken communication from down up the ladder.
“We have a dysfunctional NIS that has exposed the government and the people of Kenya. Had the NIS briefed the president two months ago about how the people of Kenya feel about the Finance Bill 2024, so many Kenyans would not have died. There would have been no mayhem, but they slept on the job.”
That, could enough and reliable information been gathered early and disseminated to the Statehouse, this could have been used to avert the last Tuesday chaos.
Haji, the former Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP), according to DP Gachagua, should be held responsible for failure to gather accurate information that can help the executive and, in particular, the president in controlling eventualities like demonstrations and other disasters.
“Noordin Haji must take responsibility for the deaths, mayhem, failing President Ruto and Kenya for not doing his job. He must do the honourable thing, not just taking responsibility but resign,” Gachagua stated.
The DP wondered why, for the first time in the history of this country, a group of youth could manage to access the Parliament house and hold MPs hostage for hours.
Gachagua has, therefore, warned Haji against attempting to link the ongoing chaos to a group of leaders so that to dodge the blame.
On Tuesday, masses of young men and women, stormed all major streets in the city and finally broke into the Parliament chambers in protest against the Finance Bill.
Ruto, in his Tuesday night counter address, described the youths as ‘criminals’ who will not be allowed to repeat the crimes anytime in future.
