Moses Kuria is not shy with his words. The man has entered 2019 with so much controversy, one’s head is reeling just trying to keep up.
What’s up at the moment? Moses Kuria has responded to Kiambu Woman Rep Gathoni Wa Muchombi in their on-going back and forth.
The MP from Gatundu South was speaking on Kikuyu vernacular station Inoro T.V in an interview and spoke concerning his recent spat with the women’s rep. A visibly upset Kuria said:
…KILA MARA UNANIITA MLEVI NA SIKUNYWI NA MAMAKO(EVERY TIME YOU {GATHONI} CALL ME A DRUNK AND I DON’T EVEN DRINK WITH YOUR MOTHER.
Wah! For those of you who don’t know the backstory, this is what has been happening between the two: Moses Kuria spoke on New Year’s criticizing the president. He had said:
AS WE ENTER 2019, YOU (VOTERS) MUST THINK … OUR RESPONSIBILITY IS NOT JUST TO VOTE AND AFTER VOTING, WE (THE GOVERNMENT THAT WE FORM) TAKE DEVELOPMENT TO OTHER REGIONS. THAT KIND OF NONSENSE MUST STOP.
He added:
WE WERE WITH HIM IN KISUMU WHERE HE COMMISSIONED A ROAD PROJECT, BUT WHEN HE VISITS (KIAMBU) HE ONLY ISSUES CERTIFICATES TO RECOVERING ALCOHOLICS.
This remark elicited responses including from the Kiambu Women’s Rep who said:
AM HELPING DRUNKARDS IN KIAMBU AND AM CALLING UPON HON MOSES KURIA WHO RECENTLY ADDRESSED THE PRESIDENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF KENYA WHILE VISIBLY DRUNK TO APOLOGISE TO THE NATION. I ALSO CALL UPON HIM TO COME TO OUR CENTRE WHERE OUR DOCTORS WILL TREAT HIM FOR SEVEN DAYS SO THAT HE CAN REGAIN HIS SENSES.
Kuria later apologised to the president but it seems that Gathoni’s remark did not go down well with him. How this affair between the two politicians ends, only time will tell.
