In videos seen by Kenyans.co.ke, the rowdy crowd could be heard admonishing the MP, forcing him to leave the event without getting an opportunity to address the residents.
Morara Kebaso, who was addressing his supporters when the MP appeared, could be heard reminding Embu residents that Ruku was the MP who tabled the controversial Maandamano Bill.
“In Mbeere North had you not been promised a KMTC in Ishiara?” Kebaso quipped, “Let me ask you, is there anything Geoffrey Ruku can tell us? He is the one who sponsored the Maandamano bill,” Kebaso added.
Using the ‘Kenya ni Home’ phrase that had put him at loggerheads with Mercy Tarus, Kebaso asked the crowd to not allow fear to grip them.
With the tide against him, the MP left the event during which the excited crowd kept cheering for Kebaso.
Morara Kebaso had earlier in the day carried on with his project inspection activities, this time going to the ground to assess the Embu Governor’s residence.
While on site, Morara claimed Ksh49 million had been budgeted for the project with Ksh27 million already been paid to the contractor.
However, the project appeared stalled judging by the overgrown grass around the building and the unfinished shell standing with no active construction ongoing.
During the same Embu tour, residents were also seen giving Morara monetary gifts and celebrating him in Embu Town.
This act comes just hours after he took to his X account to let Kenyans know that he was willing to refund contributions to any Kenyan who feels that he has not been carrying out his civic duties accordingly.
Morara questioned whether Kenyans have demonstrated enough zeal to see the country transform from a culture of wanton graft and lack of accountability.
Over the past few weeks, Kebaso has been on the receiving end of criticism from a section of Kenyans questioning the integrity of his civic education campaign…CLICK HERE FOR MORE ARTICLE>>>
