The National Cohesion and Integration Commission (NCIC) has issued a summons to proposed Member of Parliament Joseph Wainaina Iraya for remarks he allegedly made in Kapseret, Uasin Gishu County. The commission is set to question Iraya on September 17, 2026, at 10am at Britam Towers in Nairobi. Iraya is accused of urging Kikuyu community members who opposed President William Ruto or his United Democratic Alliance party to leave the area and return after the political contest.
The NCIC, citing Sections 27, 29 and 63C of the National Cohesion and Integration Act, stated that the remarks fall under its ongoing investigations. Failure to appear before the commission could result in arrest warrants and potential criminal or contempt proceedings. The NCIC has intensified its investigation into political remarks leading up to the 2027 General Election.
