Africa-Press<\/a> – Kenya<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>Interior PS Karanja Kibicho has addressed a safe that is in the office believed to store large amounts of money in his office.<\/p>\n

In an interview with Citizen TV’s Sam Gituku, Kibicho dismissed claims that the safe was currently being used for such purposes.<\/p>\n

“People think the money is printed from De La Rue and brought here covertly, that is not true. Every cent spent by the Ministry is approved by parliament,” he stated.<\/p>\n

He added that he found the safe in the office and probably it was used to store money by past government officials.<\/p>\n

“We have a history as a country and in the past, there was a lot of machinations. The previous holders of this office probably used to keep money there but now the accountability measures are very strict,” Kibicho stated.<\/p>\n

To put concerns to rest, Kibicho stated that he put the key on the safe for anyone to go and open and confirm for themselves.<\/p>\n

“I tell anyone who thinks there is money inside to go and open and if they find money in there it is theirs,” he noted.<\/p>\n

He added that the Ministry accounted for the confidential account worth Ksh100 million under the IFMIS system.<\/p>\n

Kibicho also addressed the claims of deep state noting that the whole narrative was a creation of fertile imagination.<\/p>\n

“People accusing the Interior Ministry of plotting against them have no basis,” he observed.<\/p>\n

The PS further stated that he and Kirinyaga Governor Anne Waiguru were friends adding that he had no intention of vying for the gubernatorial seat in 2022.<\/p>\n

“I have every interest to see Kirinyaga, Waiguru succeed. I will do everything within my powers to make her succeed,” he affirmed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
