Murkomen in a television interview on the evening of Monday, December 18, suggested that Rwanda is an autocracy and that President Paul Kagame unilaterally acts in his capacity.

For that, policy-making in the East African country does not conform to legal procedures unlike Kenya.

"Rwanda is not like Kenya. Rwanda is an autocracy and there whatever the president says is the law. For every decision you make in this country you must go through a proposal then Parliament then public participation. Then after you go through all the processes you go through the court and that is our country. You cannot compare the political situation in Rwanda and the size of the country with our country and our democracy. That is why we have to employ technology to deal with corruption and cartels," said Murkomen.

Reacting to Murkomen's sentiments, Raila said the CS's remarks were compounding the already, and supposedly so, strained relations between Kenya and her East African siblings.
