President William Ruto has told off Azimio leader Raila Odinga on his calls to invite Scotland Yard in the probe of the extrajudicial killings linked to the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI).
Speaking during the Launch of the State of the Judiciary and the Administration of Justice report in Nairobi, Ruto said Kenya has the capacity to solve her issues through constitutional institutions.
“Kenya does not need advice from Scotland Yard to be able to remove and disband the murderous unit from our police force,” he stated.
“We just needed to respect other institutions and do the right thing.
“Supporting a professional police force will guarantee the security of our forces.”

Ruto says his administration is committed to enhancing professionalism in the police service and consequently curbing cases of human rights violations.
“Supporting a professional police force will guarantee the life of every Kenyan, and we will get rid of the menace of extra-judicial killings.
“We suddenly don’t need the support of institutions built by others, we can build ours,” he insisted.
Raila had called on Ruto to invite Scotland Yard in the probe of the series of suspected extrajudicial killings.
He accused Ruto of using the investigations to settle personal scores with the former Director of Criminal Investigations (DCI).
