Wiper Party Leader Kalonzo Musyoka has called out the Kenya Kwanza regime over attempts to abuse The Constitution of Kenya.
In a statement on his X page on Friday, September 20, the former Vice President accused President William Ruto's administration of trying to silence Kenyans' constitutional rights.
To substantiate his claims, Kalonzo pointed out recent unlawful arrests, abductions and extrajudicial killings of Kenyan youth.
"Rogue elements of the KK administration have abducted, kidnapped, and executed Kenyan youth, whose only "crime" was the peaceful exercise of their constitutional rights - guaranteed under Article 37 - to publicly express their displeasure against the multitude of lies, inefficiencies, discrepancies, abuses and excesses perpetuated by an inept regime," he said in his statement.
Kalonzo termed the abductions and eventual executions as crimes against humanity further demanding that Ruto take responsibility for them.

"Our Founding Fathers and Mothers dream and vision of an independent, democratic, progressive and inclusive Republic where every voice, regardless of colour, or tribe, or religion, has the right to be heard and listened to, is in peril
"As a matter of conscience, I demand that Mr Ruto accept political and socio-economic responsibility for the brazen atrocities committed against our youth," he further stated.
Additionally, the Wiper leader demanded that police officers tied to mysterious disappearances be brought to account.
"On behalf of Kenyans, I also demand that the rogue police officers responsible for the abductions, kidnappings and executions, be brought before our courts and held criminally liable and responsible for the attempt to diminish, dismember and destroy our beloved Republic's present and future," Kalonzo said.
This comes a day after Former Azimio leader Raila Odinga's chief agent Saitabao Ole Kanchory called on Kenyans to consider a Kalonzo presidency in the next General Election.
In an update on social media platform X on Thursday, September 19, the lawyer painted Kalonzo as a loyal and principled person, pointing out his decision to turn down cabinet slots purportedly offered to him by the government and standing with Raila three times.
"Let's never forget that he was offered cabinet slots and asked to name his price but when it mattered the most, Kalonzo chose to stand with the young people of Kenya. He stood with Raila three times and never sold out.
"I have my issues with Kalonzo but he's still way safer than some of the names being tossed about. We can make Kalonzo the president we want. We don't need another strongman or one-man show. A weak president like Kibaki is what we need," Kanchory wrote on X.
