Nakuru Governor Lee Kinyanjui and DCI boss George Kinoti have been summoned by a Senate committee over 'missing' five street children rounded-up from Nakuru town by county askaris. The Labour and Social Welfare Committee wants Kinyanjui and the Kinoti to explain the whereabouts of the street children who were reportedly picked up and dumped in a forest in what could dent the much-awaited elevation of Nakuru town to a city. The approval by the Senate sparked celebrations in the town with residents and county officers taking to the streets to celebrate. With the senate nod, the President is now expected to grant a charter conferring city status to Nakuru. There is blood on the officers at the county government of Nakuru,” Makueni senator Mutula Mutula said.
