Busia Senator Okita Omtatah on Saturday denied calling for action against the organisers of the Limuru III meeting attended by leaders from Mt Kenya.
The Senator flagged a statement purporting to be from his office. He emphasised that the letter was fake.
In the letter, it was alleged that the senator accused NARC party leader Martha Karua, Jubilee party Secretary General Jeremiah Kioni, National Chairman, Kikuyu Council Elders Wachira Wa Kiago and other members of the Kawmene Kenya Unity Forum of violating the law.
The letter further added that the organisers of the meeting were inciting a section of Kenyans to violate the National Cohesion and Integration Commission (NCIC) Act.
"It is my view that the words uttered by the organisers and the participants of the Limuru III event were intended to incite feelings of hatred, hostility, violence and discrimination against ethnicity."
"And therefore committed an offence under section 62 of the NCIC Act. Violation under Section 3, 11, 13 must also be investigated in line with the egregious statements made that day," read the letter in parts.
The letter alleged that Omtatah had threatened to take legal action after 48 hours if the NCIC did not move to take any action against the said individuals.
Limuru III was held on May 17 this year and included leaders from the Mt Kenya region from at least 10 counties.
Following the meeting, former President Uhuru Kenyatta was selected as the Mt Kenya political kingpin. Kioni speaking on May 21 explained that Uhuru was selected because of the respect he commands in the region.
"If you look at the traditional leadership, there may be division. However, people respect Uhuru. Politicians have various opinions but people respect him," Kioni added.
Before the meeting was held, several leaders from the country including former Public Service Cabinet Secretary Moses Kuria accused Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua of planning interference.
It was also opposed by some leaders including some allied to President William Ruto such as Kikuyu MP Kimani Ichung'wah and Nyali MP Mohamed Ali.
"Politics of regional and ethnic balkanisation have been passed by time. As leaders of this country, we want politics of ideology. Politics that will unite Kenyans as one United people in pursuit of prosperity," Ichung'wah stated after the meeting.
