DAILY POST: Here is DCI KINOTI's response after RUTO denied Sh 21 billion has been stolen in construction of Arror and Kamwerer dams! He never saw this coming. Politics 05:15
Friday March 1, 2019 - Deputy President William Ruto surprised
Kenyans on Thursday when he said no money has been lost in the
construction of two dams in Kerio Valley.
Despite
overwhelming evidence showing that Sh 21 billion was looted by senior officers
in the construction of phantom dams, Ruto said the claim made by Director of
Criminal Investigation (DCI), George Kinoti, that Sh21 billion had been stolen
was a “flat lie”.
Ruto,
who was speaking during the launch of a report on the state of the Judiciary in
Nairobi on Thursday, said it is only Sh 7 billion that has been stolen.
“You have heard, for example, that the Government has lost Sh21
billion in Kimwarer and Arror dams, which is a flat lie.”
“The money in question is about Sh7 billion
and for every coin that has been paid, we have a guarantee that no money will
be lost because we are a responsible Government,” Ruto said.
However
in a fast response, Kinoti said it is Sh 21 billion that has been lost and it
is not Sh 7 billion as claimed by the DP.
Kinoti,
in a phone interview with Citizen TV on Thursday morning, said he and his
officers have investigated thoroughly and it is Sh 21 billion.
“It
is Sh 21 billion that has been lost and it is not Sh 7 billion as claimed by
some quarters,” Kinoti said.
