"Kinoti has been dealing with the issue of money laundering but his efforts were marred with political interferences. When Kinoti is my Minister of Interior, I will execute my duties as expected," Wajackoyah told his supporters.

The CS attracted Wajackoyah’s wrath when he criticized his campaign strategy centered around the legalization of marijuana and selling hyena testicles.
Wjackoyah is also keen on exporting dog meat and snake poison.
"Regrettably, we have also observed leaders mobilizing the youth through misinformation and false promises such as legalization of cannabis for commercial and recreational purposes if they are elected to office.
"They have even cited countries that have legalised cannabis for recreational purposes without providing factual information on controls that have been put in place where such legalization has been allowed," the CS noted.
