Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen has issued a stern warning to politicians against using Kenya's security matters for political gain, saying the government will not allow anyone to undermine the country's peace and stability through divisive politics.

Speaking during a church service at ACK St. Stephen's Chepkoilel Church in Uasin Gishu County, Murkomen maintained that Kenya remains secure despite isolated incidents involving what he termed a handful of politicians promoting tribalism and insecurity.

The Interior CS said the government had made efforts to engage such leaders but regretted that some had remained unwilling to change.
