MY SON WAS NOT ARRESTED ON JKIA – TREASURER CS CLARIFIES

Treasury Cabinet Secretary (CS) Ukur Yatani has issued a statement on the alleged arrest of his son, Ibrae.⁣
⁣
Noting that two well-known bloggers perpetuated the now confirmed fake news, CS Yatani termed the reports as malicious.⁣
⁣
The two bloggers – Robert Alai and Cyprian Nyakundi – had alleged that Ibrae had been arrested over a large sum of money while leaving the country at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA).⁣
⁣
The bloggers went on to suggest that the CS’s son was a pawn in a grand corruption.⁣
⁣
While responding to the allegations, CS Yatani stated that the rumour had been designed to malign his family’s name.⁣
⁣
He added that he will be moving to court against the bloggers over the fake report.⁣
⁣
“The social media reports by Alai and Nyakundi that one of my sons was arrested at the airport is false, malicious and utter nonsense.⁣
⁣
“It’s sad to note the extent heartless individuals can go to besmirch an innocent family’s reputation to achieve an end. We shall meet with them in court,” the CS insisted.
