A section of Rift Valley politicians have continued to raise concerns over the arrest of Nandi Hills MPs Alfred Keter.
The lawmakers have warned that President Uhuru Kenyatta's legacy will be affected if government agencies continue to disrespect the rule of law.
According to the lawmakers, the arrest of Keter is an attempt to intimidate and silence the MP.
The MPs were led by Cheranganyi MP Joshua Kuttuny and Samuel Moroto (Mogotio).
They were speaking on Saturday at the Muthaiga Police Station where Keter is being held since Friday.
Keter was arrested over alleged fake Sh633 million Treasury Bills.
"I want to tell Uhuru as my good friend that building roads, bringing electricity to the people or connecting water to every home will not earn him a name," Kuttuny said. You will only set a legacy with respecting the rule of law," Keter said.
"We are not happy with you Mr President and the entire Rift Valley is watching. How are we supposed to explain to our people what is happening to one of us. Please adhere to the rule of law and stop intimidating leaders using police," Kuttuny added.
The MPs have raised concerns over Keter's detention without any charges being put forward.
