Former Naivasha Member of Parliament Jane Kihara has come out to deny allegations that she was involved in the planning of retaliatory attacks against perceived opposition supports in Nakuru and Naivasha during the 2007/2008 post election violence.
Reacting to the evidence liked to the collapsed case against President Uhuru Kenyatta which was released by the ICC prosecutor Fatou Bensuda, Kihara said that as she has previously stated her conscious remains clear and she never had a thing to do with the chaos in Naivasha and Nakuru.
Speaking in Naivasha town on Wednesday Kihara said that the ICC prosecution office failed to carry independent investigations into the 2007/2008 chaos and relied on evidence from civil society groups something she says led to the collapse of the case.
“The Kenya human rights commission has on several occasions accused me of planning and financing violence that rocked Naivasha and Nakuru in 2007/2008 and that is the same evidence which ICC based on to take Uhuru to The Hague and because the evidence from civil society groups was fabricated lies there was no where the case was going to,”
“I have always stated that I had nothing to do with the violence in 2007/2008 and my GOD know that. I am a mother and I wouldn’t have supported the kind of things that happened in Naivasha,” said Kihara.
In the evidence which was released by Fatou Bensuda on Monday Kihara was among some former Mps who were accused of being used to plan and organize the attacks against members’ of certain communities in Naivasha and Nakuru.
