Lawyer Ahmednasir Abdullahi has weighed in on President William Ruto’s meeting with Royal Media Services (RMS) chairman Samuel Kamau Macharia popularly known as SK Macharia.
The senior counsel in a tweet on Wednesday, June 28 stated that generals surrender carefully after negotiating and terms agreed upon.
“Even Generals surrender! Every surrender is carefully negotiated and its terms agreed upon...and written,” he stated.
President Ruto held a meeting with Macharia on Tuesday at State House Nairobi.
A source at State House confirmed the meeting to Nairobileo.co.ke noting that the President met with the RMS chairman just like he does with other local investors.
“I confirm the meeting. SK Macharia is a local investor. The President met him just like he does others,” the source privy to the matter spoke to this journalist.
Macharia supported Azimio la Umoja leader Raila Odinga in the run-up to the August 9, 2022, general election.
He however clarified that the RMS was independent and would not engage in biased reporting when covering politics.
"I am exercising my personal constitutional right to political participation as a responsible and free citizen. My political views and preferences are completely independent of my businesses which are managed by impartial and competent professionals," Macharia stated on December 10, 2021.
