The National Cohesion and Integration Commission (NCIC) has summoned Homa Bay Town MP Peter Kaluma to appear before the commission over remarks he allegedly made in Homa Bay County on August 15, 2026.
In the summons, NCIC said it was investigating utterances attributed to Kaluma during a political gathering, particularly comments touching on the “one-term” campaign against President William Ruto.
Kaluma has been directed to appear before the commission at Britam Towers, Upper Hill, Nairobi, on Wednesday, August 19, 2026, at 10am to assist with the ongoing investigations.

The commission quoted translated portions of the remarks in which Kaluma allegedly warned supporters against backing a one-term arrangement.
“As from today we are issuing the command that anyone that says one term deal with them.”
The MP is also alleged to have called for action against individuals who had worked with political opponents.
“Anyone that has worked with the other side, even if they were a driver and they feel they cannot walk with us, must now disappear.”
According to the summons, Kaluma further spoke about inspecting hotels and houses where people associated with the opposing side had allegedly booked accommodation.
“We are going to inspect all hotels and houses where they had booked, anyone who owns a hotel in Homa Bay must tell us all the guest they have, we must deal with those people and we might deal with the hotel too.”
The remarks allegedly went on to invoke political support for the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) in the region and President Ruto’s bid for a second term.
“This is an ODM stronghold and we insist that Ruto is two-term.”
Kaluma is further alleged to have said:“If anyone speaks of one-term deal with them.”

The NCIC said the investigations were being undertaken within its mandate to promote national unity and harmony and guard against “negative ethnicity, racism, religious intolerance and hate speech.”
The commission has not stated that Kaluma has been found guilty of any offence.
His appearance is intended to enable NCIC to obtain his response and assist with its ongoing investigations.
The summons requires the Homa Bay Town MP to appear before the commission on Wednesday, August 19, morning.
