The Kitui Woman Representative, a member of the National Assembly’s Defence and Intelligence Committee, has ruthlessly dismissed Githunguri MP Wamuchomba’s claims that Rigathi Gachagua’s helmet and body armour are illegal. She accused him of deliberately misleading the public.“If you understand Article 29 of the Constitution, stop misleading Kenyans,” she fired, making it crystal clear that protective gear is fully legal.Drawing a sharp line between lawful protective equipment and teargas, she warned: “Using teargas in a church is not leadership. It is a clear abuse of power.” She condemned the normalization of state violence, insisting that places of worship must never become battlegrounds.The Woman Representative said her stance is guided by her role on the Defence and Intelligence Committee, emphasizing that the rule of law must prevail and those trying to twist it for political games must be called out.
