Narok Senator Ledama Olekina has alleged that Interior Cabinet Secretary Kithure Kindiki is misadvising President William Ruto. 

In a statement via Twitter on Monday, April 17, Ledama claimed that CS Kindiki misguided President Ruto over appointing former Police Spokesperson Bruno Shiosho to head the Kenya Coast Guard Service (KCGS). 

The ODM Senator stated that KCGS has managed to stop foreigners from exploiting Kenyan marine resources adding that with the new changes the marine resources are at risk.

“Were it not for the Kenyan Coast Guard the over-exploitation of marine resources by foreign trawlers would not have been stopped. With the new changes of bringing inexperienced police officer to command another service - the coast guard - our marine resources are at risk! Kindiki Kithure you are misadvising William Ruto,” Ledama stated.
