Interior Cabinet Secretary Kithure Kindiki has apologised to Kenyans for the Shakahola mass deaths reiterating that he will ensure responsible parties are held to account.
Speaking during a church service in Maara in Tharaka Nithi, the interior CS said the government will not spare anyone linked to the cult deaths. According to Kindiki's mention, every officer who through omission or commission aided Mackenzi in committing the atrocities will be held to account. Mr Kindiki also said the government's crackdown to remove rogue preachers will go on as planned.
The CS has urged the church and other religious organizations to help with the crackdown, stating that they've received resistance from some preachers. He lamented rogue preachers use deceptive doctrines to dupe their followers.
"This is the responsibility of the government, let us join hands in eliminating rogue preachers using scriptures to radicalise and indoctrinate their followers," he added.
Police have exhumed over 200 bodies from the Shakahola forest. Meanwhile, President William Ruto has appointed a commission to revisit the law governing religious institutions. The commission is chaired by former National Council of Churches of Kenya (NCCK) Secretary-General Mutava Musyimi. Other leaders include Bishop Mark Kariuki, Bishop (Dr) Eli Rop, Archbishop Maurice Muhatia, Judy Thongori, Rev (Dr) Alphonse Kanga, Bishop Philip Kitoto and Dr Faridun Abdalla are members of the commission.
The head of state has tasked the commission with identifying gaps in the legal, institutional and government systems that accord cultic leaders the elbow room to radicalize their followers. The task force is expected to front proposals on how the public can report cult and extremist groups.

William Ruto is not Samoei. He’s just a kipsigis kalejinga.
Shakahola happened because William Ruto was busy sabotaging the government from the inside and campaigning.
The police were busy following Kenya kwanza and William Ruto antics.
Campaigning for more than 4 years.
Kalejinga.
100% william Ruto should be blamed for Shakahola massacre.
I am not a Ruto supporter but I am a person who is fair in my social dealings with others. How is Ruto connected to the Shakahola killings? Did he sign an Executive Order for McKenzie to orchestrate these killings? Did he pay the victims the way he pays attendees of his political meetings? You all should blame Moses Kuria because he once defended GMOs by saying that Kenyans will die and will die in many different forms.
1. he spent more than 4 year’s campaigning , keeping law enforcement busy with Nonesense and radicalizing religious leaders.
2. William Ruto & his wife have been paying pastors & other dubious people to pray for them & give them fake prophecies.
The fake prophets can be found on YouTube & Facebook.
(Those pastors have been giving testimonies and telling people they got money from him & his wife. )
3. William Ruto has a history of financing killing of people in churches(Kiambaa church)
4. The man was sabotaging the government from the inside.
Shakahola deaths is a result of mixing politics and religion.
Samoei has always mixed the two constructs together and the people of Kenya should demand that he resigns from office. Why? Politics and religion involve the part of the brain known as the amygdala.
The Kenyan people cannot afford to have a religious fanatic and addict in the state office as the president of Kenya. Prayers are based on superstition. You cannot run a government based on prayers and superstition.
With all prayers going on in Kenya, by now, Kenyan would have been a paradise devoid of all vices known to humanity.
