Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 51226, member: 636"] Interior boss Kipchumba Murkomen demands Chief Justice Martha Koome crack down hard on violent demonstrators who torched police stations and ransacked businesses. The cabinet secretary warns Kenya faces complete chaos unless judges back government efforts to prosecute criminal protesters and their financiers. Murkomen declares authorities will arrest every thug who attacks citizens and destroys their property during these lawless riots. He distinguishes recent violence from previous peaceful demonstrations by highlighting unprecedented attacks on courts and theft of police weapons. The minister insists Article 37 constitutional protections never intended to cover such destructive behavior. Political leaders who stoke protest violence will face serious courtroom consequences regardless of their elected positions. Murkomen threatens mayors, lawmakers and governors with prosecution if they continue encouraging these dangerous activities. The cabinet secretary made these tough statements while accompanying President William Ruto during a development visit to Elgeyo Marakwet County on Saturday. He previously labeled Friday events as a botched coup attempt designed to topple the current administration. Murkomen described the coordinated attacks as terrorism and political sabotage orchestrated by violence masterminds opposed to democratic governance. The president launched multiple infrastructure projects during his county tour including the Etio Dam and Simotwo Water initiatives. Ruto also broke ground on the Tirwane Water Project and participated in tree planting ceremonies. The head of state attended the ninth Kaptagat Integrated Conservation Programme as part of his busy development schedule. Murkomen delivered his coup allegations during the official opening of the new Tarasaa Sub-County in Garsen Constituency. He blamed democracy opponents for organizing the station invasions and vehicle burning incidents. [/QUOTE]
