Azimio lawmakers now say that the Shakahola massacre could have been stopped, had state agencies tasked with the security of the country done their jobs. In a statement, Minority leader Opiyo Wandayi said all those responsible should be punished, to prevent such negligence from occurring again. We must audit the criminal justice system and its interactions with the main suspect and members of this cult," he said. Azimio affirmed their support for tighter regulation of religious entities including churches, mosques, temples, and synagogues. "It’s also baffling how the exhumation exercise should be moving at a snail’s pace despite the awesome machinery at the disposal of the State," Wandayi said.
