Gatundu South MP Moses Kuria has refuted claims by the opposition National Super Alliance (NASA) that he allegedly convened a meeting with members of the outlawed Mungiki sect.
Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) chairman, John Mbadi in Tuesday alleged that the controversial Jubilee MP had met with the sect members to scheme on how to disrupt protests against the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) by NASA supporters.
"The information we have is that Moses Kuria and the state machinery have organised the Mungiki and armed them with crude weapons to cause chaos during our peaceful Nasa demos. This is with the aim to cause violence to serve selfish interests," said Mbadi.
He added: "The police have rejected our calls to provide adequate security or to investigate these claims."
Speaking at a press briefing at Parliament on Tuesday, Kuria accused NASA of plotting to destabilize the country and dismissed claims of planning to use the outlawed group to scuttle Nasa protests.
“I am not a member or an associate of Mungiki, but I am a member of Nairobi Business Committee and we have to protect businesses,” said Kuria.
“We spent the whole of yesterday (Monday) campaigning in Nakuru before we retreated to a hotel in the evening. I have never associated with Mungiki,” said Kuria.
“NASA is setting a script to drag Kenya back to the International Criminal Court. They want to create chaos then blame some people for it,” said Kuria.

The light was on Uhunye's A$$ at the ICC but Arap Mashamba and His People let him Off the Hook.
Moses Kuria is One of the Reasons we NYERIans don't Get Along very well With KIAMBUans.
What is the difference between those NASA thugs and Mungiki. They are the same sheep with different clothing. So, all of you complaining about Mungiki must first assess your gangs and see who and what they are. It has to be a level playing ground.
Pliz name some of the NASA thugs you're talking about. I name Uhunye and Njenga.
Even if Kuria is Mungiki so what?? Those hooligans loot and damage our businesses in Nairobi and everywhere during their so called demonstrations. Am also a member of Nairobi business committee and we are not going to allow few individuals who don't have anything to lose to loot our businesses. No way!!! Not this time.
Kifaranga. Those thugs Loot and Damage Business;Mungiki Kills People (and Democracy). FYI: You can Replace Businesses (even like some Fake Kikuyu IDPs were "replaced" Businesses that NEVER existed); BUT you can NOT replace Lost Lives.
Kuria for prezo. If you were prezo ungekuwa umewaweza watu wengine.
@Guest1 -NASA thugs are all those who follow the older thug, liar, political conman, prostitute,cry baby, whiner, murderer, obnoxious, irritating, inciter and fake Joshua Ojinga.
You are not only a member of mingiki, but a lso you have taken the oath to advance their interests which are a mirror to yours, And it is known that your likes have used mungiki before and you will use it again, the only difference being that the light is on your A$$
