Baraza la Maaskofu wa Katoliki Kenya (KCCB) limeikosoa serikali ya Rais William Ruto kwa kushindwa kutimiza ahadi zake kwa Wakenya na kudumisha utamaduni wa uongo na kutumia mitambo ya Serikali kunyamazisha wapinzani
Aidha, Mwenyekiti wa Baraza hilo, Askofu Maurice Muhatia amewashutumu viongozi wa Serikali ya Kenya kwa kushindwa kutimiza ahadi walizoahidi wakati wa uchaguzi, kutojali kilio cha wananchi na kurudisha nyuma mafanikio ya kidemokrasia ya Kenya
"Utamaduni wa uongo unabadilisha kwa haraka uadilifu na heshima wanayostahili Wakenya. Kwa kifupi, inaonekana kuwa ukweli haupo, na kama upo, ni ule tu ambao serikali inasema," alisema Askofu Muhatia.

A Catholic bishops' lobby has accused the government of President William Ruto of perpetuating "a culture of lies" and using the State machinery to silence critics.
The Chairman of Kenya Conference of Catholic Bishops (KCCB), Archbishop Maurice Muhatia, on Thursday led the bishops in calling out the Kenya Kwanza regime for failing to keep its election pledges, tailing to listen to cries of ordinary people, and clawing back on Kenya's democratic gains.
The church leaders openly criticized Dr Ruto and his entire leadership, with Archbishop Muhatia saying a huge number of Kenyans no longer trust the government they voted in two years ago.
"The culture of lies is swiftly replacing the integrity and respect that Kenyans deserve. Basically, it seems that truth does not exist, and if it does, it is only what the government says," Archibishop Muhatia said.
"Unfortunately, it seems that the Kenyans have helplessly tolerated the lies told to them constantly by the politicians. Kenyans must learn not to applaud or validate the lies that the politicians tell them but rather must resolve to seek and be led by the truth."
The bishops raised concern over Kenya Kwanza's economic and political policies, and how the country is being governed. They took issue with the introduction of the Tax Amendment Bill 2024, which they said was in many ways the reintroduction of Finance Bill 2024 through the back door.
