President William Ruto has vowed that his government will not relent in fighting people who are destroying others in the name of religion. Going further, the President asked for more time for government to investigate the happenings at Shakahola Forest. Homicide detectives on Friday exhumed 29 bodies in Shakahola forest, the highest number in a day, taking the death toll to 179. Ruto formed a 17-member task force to review legal and regulatory frameworks governing religious institutions in Kenya. The committee members include Bishop Mark Kariuki, Bishop (Dr) Eli Rop, Archbishop Maurice Muhatia, Judy Thongori, Rev (Dr) Alphonse Kanga, Bishop Philip Kitoto and Dr Faridun Abdalla.
