While IG Kimaiyo continues to get criticism from various human rights and journalism bodies for supposedly intimidating Mohammed Ali and Allan Namu for their controversial documentary that exposed the looting in Westgate mall,the president has added his voice into the matter.
Sharing the same sentiments with Kimaiyo,the president perceives the persistent showing of the Westgate footage as unpatriotic and putting the national security at stake.
Uhuru argues that by consistently showing the footage Mohammed Ali and other journalists comes out as an appraisal to the terrorists while the army gets demonized.
He pledged with Kenyans to respect the KDF since they put their lives on the line to protect the citizens and at the same time warned journalists with Moha in mind to stop abusing the freedom of speech given to them and continue with their duties responsibly and without compromising the national security.
The president's statement comes only a day after Mohammed Ali and Allan Namu were summoned to appear before the CID at Kilimai in relations to the CCTV footage.
Do you support the president's sentiments on defending the KDF and do you think Mohammed Ali went overboard.
