Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen has strongly condemned former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua for alleging that contaminated jet fuel may have caused the helicopter crash that killed former Emurua Dikirr MP Johana Ng’eno.

• Murkomen dismissed Gachagua's claims as "made-up, cooked-up nonsense" and "insensitive, irresponsible and shameful."
• The controversy arose when Gachagua demanded investigations into unresolved high-profile deaths, including that of Ng’eno, citing alleged intelligence about the fuel.
• Murkomen stated that preliminary findings attributed Ng’eno's crash to bad weather and challenged Gachagua to provide any evidence to investigators.
