EALA Member of Parliament David Ole Sankok has demanded the resignation of Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen. Speaking about the arrest of Mukurweini MP John Kaguchia and broader political tensions ahead of the 2027 General Election, Sankok criticized Murkomen's leadership of the Interior Ministry. He accused Murkomen of failing to handle security and political tensions effectively.
Sankok expressed frustration with the Interior Ministry's inconsistent application of the law, saying it lacked a strong leadership approach. He directly demanded that Murkomen step down, stating that "village mentality" could not run an Interior Ministry. Sankok also criticized decisions he attributed to Murkomen's previous tenure, including traffic management measures on highways, questioning their effectiveness.
He argued that these decisions could discourage road users and illustrate a broader pattern of poor decision-making. The comments come as political activity increases and security, political mobilisation, and the conduct of politicians are hot topics ahead of the 2027 election.
