Kikuyu MP Kimani Ichungwa has asked the National Cohesion and Integration Commission to put in place measures that will curb hate speech and incitement among politicians.
Speaking to journalists at Kikuyu town on Thursday, Ichungwa raised concern over what he termed as a hate speech trend among some politicians.
The Kikuyu legislator warned that if not checked, hate speech and incitement would plunge the country into chaos.
The MP said NCIC is mandated to tame hate mongering adding that it must crack the whip on hate mongers
Ichungwa also warned against what he termed as selective war on hate mongers.
The MP said individuals found to be perpetuating hate speech must be investigated and prosecuted without bias.
He said effective fight against hate mongering will be realised if there are no bias arrests, investigations and prosecutions.
At the same time, Ichungwa wants the Director of Public Prosecutions Keriako Tobiko to order investigations against Bungoma Senator Moses wetangula's alleged incitement remarks he is allegedly said to have made at a rally recently.
The Kikuyu MP warned that the impunity of incitement and perpetuation of hate speech will continue if the police and relevant bodies do not act immediately on suspects.
On Tuesday, Kiambu Governor William Kabogo also called for the arrest of Wetangula over the said hate remarks allegations.
Kabogo complained saying the police and the DPP were quick to order for his interrogation recently but were acting slow on Wetangula’s case.
Meanwhile, Ichungwa has urged law enforcement agencies to beef up security this festive season.
The MP said police must up their game and deal with elements of crime.
There have been concerns of insecurity in some parts of Kikuyu recently with the police calling on the support of residents to take crime.
