In a post on his social media space, the Senator declared his support for the three dismissed directors whom he described as ardent foot soldiers for the Jubilee administration.

Murkomen inquired why the Head of Public Communication Munyori Buku, Chief of messaging Eric Ng'eno and Digital and Diaspora Communication manager Dennis Itumbi were sent packing.

“While the others were busy making money in the corporate world, these men were in the trenches with Uhuru and Ruto,” Murkomen says in the post.

The Marakwet Senator said the move to suspend the three was a ploy orchestrated by people of bad will within the administration.

The three were sent home on Wednesday with close sources revealing that the President was concerned with how classified information was being leaked to the public as well as an unstructured communication within the team.
