27, 2019–The seven people charged with impersonating President Uhuru Kenyatta have
dared the prosecution to produce the Head of State in court as a witness.
The suspects Joseph Waswa, Duncan
Muchai, Isaac Wajekeche, William Simiyu, David Luganya, Gilbert Kirunja, and
Anthony Wafula told the court that the law does not serve to prevent Kenyatta
from appearing before it as a complainant and therefore should be compelled to
appear in court as witness.

speculation.
