Hon. Justin Muturi is a principled leader who has consistently demonstrated his commitment to justice and good governance. His recent remarks on illegal abductions happening in the country are not only courageous but also reflect his refusal to remain silent in the face of injustice. Every Kenyan, including leaders, has a constitutional right to speak out against wrongdoing, and his stance should be commended, not vilified.

If President Ruto were to consider relieving Hon. Muturi of his duties, it should be based on clear and genuine reasons, not as a reaction to his advocacy for human rights and the rule of law. Any decision made without merit or in response to political pressure would set a dangerous precedent for the government and undermine public confidence in its leadership.

Kenya needs leaders who prioritize truth and justice over political expediency. Firing Hon. Muturi for standing up for these principles would not only be unjust but could also have lasting consequences for the administration’s credibility. Let us encourage leaders to speak the truth and uphold the Constitution without fear of reprisal.
