The Council of Governors (CoG) called for an urgent Extraordinary Council Meeting scheduled for Wednesday morning to deliberate on the remarks made by Nyeri Governor Kahiga Mutahi on the death of former Prime Minister Raila Odinga.
COG indicated that a further statement would follow after the meeting.
Kahiga is the deputy chairman of COG and there are calls for his removal from the post.
The Council issued a strong condemnation of remarks distancing itself entirely from comments deemed “reckless, insensitive, and inhumane” regarding the passing of Odinga.
In a statement released, the Council expressed deep disappointment over Governor Kahiga’s utterances, noting that his sentiments were personal and do not reflect the collective views of the Council—particularly during a period of national mourning.
