US-Based Prof Makau Mutua Dismisses Delisting of KHRC, Says Won't Recognize Uhuru as President
Professor Makau Mutua has hit out at Non-governmental Organization board chairman Fazul Mahamed for de-listing Kenya Human Rights Commission over allegations of operating illegal bank accounts.
The NGOs Coordination Board executive director on Monday said it had de-registered KHRC for employing expatriates with no valid work permits and failing to account for donor funds.
Mutua took to social media to express disappointment with the board, saying the High Court had watered down the reasons given by Fazul in the letter dated August 14.
"Fazul has no legal authority to de-register KHRC. High Court last year rejected these false charges and ordered him to cease and desist," Mutua said.
In the letter to KHRC, NGO board accused the agency of opening four illicit bank accounts adding that "two of these are at NIC bank and the others at CBA"
"KHRC cannot account for Sh1.2 billion that was in the account by October 4, 2016, in accordance with the NGOs Coordination Act 1990."
The New York based professor Makau Mutua has been a staunch criric of Jubilee administration. Mutua said he will not recognize Uhuru's victory following August 8th election.
"The sins of 2013 have been compounded. That's why as a matter of my conscience, I can't – and won't – recognize Uhuru as President," he tweeted on Saturday.

'Mutua said he will not recognize Uhuru's victory following August 8th election' that is only the state of your mind Mutua. Nobody cares whether you recognize Uhuru or not. He is the president of Kenya for the next 5 yrs a total of 10 yrs.

Mutua, I agree with you. When the IEBC (an extension of Jubilee alliance) clears people with a shady past to run for public office, anyone with a working and live conscience cannot recognize all the people elected with their closets full of tons of skeletons. Look at what is happening to the USA now when a person with a shady past got elected!
the same IEBC cleared Uhuru and Ruto to run in 2013 when they had been identified as people with a shady past and had to go to Hague. These two people used all the national resources to hinder their International court cases in Hague. After they came to power, mega corruption became the norm. When they both leave office in 2022 Kenya as a nation will be totally bankrupt.
Democracy put Adolph Hitler and many more other people (Mugabe, Museveni, and Donald) in power. It is a political system that has to be replacement immediately.
Mutua (mwana wa asa), you are not alone. I don't recognize the current Jubilee leaders at all.Just look at what democracy has given us: Soniko as the governor of Nairobi and Waiguru in Kirinyaga!

In reply to Mutua, I agree with you. … by anonymous (not verified)
Shady candidates were cleared from both NASA & Jubilee @anonymous. Watengula sold Tokyo Embassy, Oil blocks in Turkana & is wanted for BAT scandal, Raila 82 couple & 2007/08 killing of 1300 people, Waiguru 791M just to list but a few. If you want to portray cleanliness be clean enough and do not take side

@Kenya: I totally agree with you. My question to you is simple, Is the IEBC doing its job if the people that I identified and your list are cleared to run for public office? Is it truly "independent" as they claim to be?

Uhuru and Ruto: Do you know the meaning of the word "democracy?"
The people who taught you how to govern (Kenyatta and Toroitich were tyrants) were rude, oppressive, and dictatorial.
Democracy - an alien construct from Europe basically means:
" government of the people by the people and for the people."
Don't think you can get away with perpetuating the sad days of Kenyatta and Toroitich. We will get you out of office immediately - it is called impeachment.

Our constitution n the white man constitution some of you writing here states that you r innocent until proven guilty so please let's think or reasons with our brains n not our behinds.The same constitution gives wanjiku the normal Kenyan the power which execends this constitution so if wanjiku decided to follow the killer confused propagandist Rao or other politicians who r said to have bribed like kidero,wetangui,sonko,waiguru,oburu ondinga n many more then it's upto them n should leave with it.Simple n clear.So this gay lawyer makau should go ahead n not recognise the prezzo!Its his rights.
