Kenya demands former Deputy President clarify claims of government ties to Al-Shabaab.

Kenyan officials are demanding that former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua record a statement with security agencies regarding his claims that President William Ruto and the Kenyan government have links to terrorist group Al-Shabaab. Gachagua made these allegations during a US tour, claiming to have information on planned terrorist attacks. Deputy President Kithure Kindiki and Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen have accused Gachagua of tarnishing Kenya's image and urged him to provide evidence to support his claims.
