According to the charge sheet obtained by Kenya Online News, the lawmaker was quoted on July 8, 2025, where she accused President William Ruto of orchestrating the chaos in Naivasha during the aforementioned demonstrations.
The charge sheet indicated that Kihara claimed goons were transported to Naivasha in an NYS bus and dropped off at Karagita. At the same time, she claimed that other rioters were dropped off in trucks in Mai Mahiu.
“I want to talk about Naivasha because I know those goons were transported in NYS bus, in a place called Karagita these people nobody knew them, as I condle with the bereaved and also empathise with those properties who were destructed, I want to tell President Ruto this is not a war you can win unless you want to destroy this country,” the sheet read in part.
“…police are not doing anything, they didn’t try to arrest the goons, we could see in the place goons walking with them, so it is not anything that is going to end, we as Kenyans are prepared to prepare our country so that we cannot be drowned by one single person because you think you are so powerful, yet you have the power which we gave you, you cannot use it to destroy us and the country.”
The Naivasha lawmaker’s lawyer C.N Kihara termed the charges as inconsequential, citing that “it is typically used against drunk men in the village and not a Member of Parliament serving her third term.”
Jayne has since been presented at the Milimani Law Courts on Friday, with key politicians such as Wiper’s Kalonzo Musyoka attending the court proceedings.
24 hours earlier, she was arrested at her home in Nakuru County in a dramatic scuffle that was captured live on her Facebook page. This is after police officers stormed her residence shortly after she met with sand harvesters from Mai Mahiu
The arrest comes just days after she failed to respond to a summons by the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) over remarks allegedly undermining the authority of a senior public official.
