Politicians Conflict Over Gideon Moi’s Denied Access By Nandi Residents

On Saturday, January 2, Politicians engaged in an exchange online over an incident involving Baringo Senator Gideon Moi.

Senator Moi had met a cold reception in Kapsisywa, Nandi County, where he was scheduled to be crowned as a Kalenjin elder.

Nandi youth forced the Senator’s motorcade to turn back claiming he was disrespectful to Deputy President William Ruto.

Moses Kuria, Gatundu South MP,  was the first politician to condemn the unruly action.

“I have received reports that Senator Gideon Moi was blocked by Nandi residents from visiting Talai elders this morning. This is backward. This is primitive. This is wrong. This is the Kenya that we left behind in 2007-2008. Huko haturudi. Tolerance is a must,” he stated.

“Ndugu as a lawyer who should know our constitution guarantees freedom of movement and assembly you should not cheer these band of criminals on. But we are not surprised, Ruto’s signature is threats, intimidation, hostage taking, and violence. SHAME!” ODM party Secretary General Edwin Sifuna Wrote.

“When Gideon Moi blocked visitors from seeing his father you didn’t mention 2007/2008, When Talai youth block him from seeing their fathers you suddenly pop up with 2007/2008?,”  Elegyo Marakwet Senator Kipchumba Murkomen stated.
