All firearm licences belonging to leaders involved in yesterday’s by-election chaos will be suspended immediately, Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i has said. Additionally, he said, the politicians involved will no longer just be taken to court. The government will now seek to invoke Chapter 6 of the Constitution and ensure they are declared unfit for office. “We can’t have leaders paying bonds of Sh10,000 and wait for the (case) mention after around 10 months. By the time they are back to court, they have slapped ten other people and constantly keep paying bonds,” Dr Matiang’i said on Friday.
