Gachagua Blames NIS Director General Noordin Haji Intelligence Dissemination Over Anti-Finance Bill Protests
Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua on Wednesday unleashed a bombshell calling for the resignation of National Intelligence Service (NIS) Director General Noordin Haji over what he described as dissemination of disjointed intelligence to President William Ruto.
Speaking during a live press conference, Gachagua claimed that the country has a disjointed intelligence system, insisting that NIS had failed in intelligence gathering, which could have been used to avert the fatal demonstrations on Tuesday.
During the same address, Gachagua also expressed his opinion that 13 NIS assistant directors were serving under what he described as Haji’s inept leadership, citing Tuesday’s events as a first.
“Noordin Haji must take responsibility for the deaths, mayhem, failing President Ruto and Kenya for not doing his job. He must do the honourable thing, not just taking responsibility but resign,” Gachagua stated.
According to Gachagua, the brewing rage that led to Kenyans storming Parliament was the clearest indication of failure since such actions were unprecedented in Kenya’s history.
The Deputy President also proceeded to laud the Generation Z for making their voices heard.
