Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka is expected at the DCI headquarters on Friday over claims he grabbed Yatta land.

The accusation was made by Deputy President William Ruto in Bomet last Friday.

He claimed Kalonzo grabbed a 200-acre government land in Yatta which belonged to the NYS.

But Kalonzo dismissed the claims as wild and constituted character assassination.

In a communique on Friday, Kalonzo will present himself at 8:30am to 9am at the DCI concerning the ownership of the land.

He will be having in his possession all the legal/official documents showing how he acquired the said property.

Kalonzo said Ruto to follow suit and present himself before the same authorities for scrutiny.

Kalonzo’s utterances have caused mixed reactions as politicians allied to the Deputy President rushed to defend Ruto while those allied to Musyoka defended the Ukambani political kingpin.

Kitui Governor Charity Ngilu defended Musyoka, stating the attack on him was ill-advised.
