His remarks directly point to the Office of the President and officials responsible for internal security, raising alarm over the state of law and order in Kenya.
Ahmednasir specifically called out Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen, urging him to take immediate action.
According to Ahmednasir, Murkomen must “call his officers to order” and dismantle any alleged militia networks associated with state actors.
He further suggested that both Murkomen and Principal Secretary Raymond Omollo possess deeper knowledge of these activities than they publicly admit.
The claims come amid rising political tensions, with incidents involving Godfrey Osotsi and former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua drawing particular concern.
Violence targeting Osotsi and disruptions of Gachagua’s rally in Kikuyu have fueled fears that political competition is increasingly being accompanied by intimidation and organized chaos.
Ahmednasir warned that rogue elements within political circles in regions such as Rift Valley, Central Kenya, and Nairobi could be mobilizing such groups ahead of the 2027 elections.
He described the situation as both “alarming and senseless,” arguing that the existence of militia groups undermines formal security agencies and threatens democratic stability.
His blunt message—“the buck stops with Murkomen”—places direct responsibility on the Interior Ministry to restore order and ensure that Kenya does not slide into politically driven violence.
He insists that the country has no place for militias and that any such structures must be dismantled immediately.
As the debate intensifies, Kenyans are left grappling with a critical question: are these isolated incidents, or signs of a deeper, more troubling trend within the nation’s political and security landscape?
