What you need to know:

  • Appearing in court on Thursday, Mr Itumbi requested to be allowed to present a recording of a meeting at La Mada Hotel in Nairobi, where the alleged plot to kill the DP was hatched.

  • “I have an audio and video recording of material that could show, subject to investigations, that a meeting could have happened at which discussions were held on possibility of assassinating one of my employers, particularly the DP,” said Mr Itumbi.

Members of Parliament allied to Deputy President William Ruto Friday demanded that the court should allow Dennis Itumbi to present his evidence over an alleged plot to assassinate the DP.

Speaking at Machakusi Primary School in Teso South constituency, Bumula MP Mwambu Mabonga and his Kimilili counterpart Didmus Barasa gave the magistrate hearing the case a one week ultimatum to admit the alleged audio and video clips to be played in court.
