Monday, September 23, 2024 - Mbeere North MP Geoffrey Ruku was yesterday forced to run for his dear life after Embu residents booed and chased him for trying to storm activist Morara Kebaso’s civil education event.
The crowd, which had attended
Kebaso’s event, admonished the MP, forcing him to leave the event without
getting an opportunity to address the residents.
Matters got worse after Morara
Kebaso, who was addressing his supporters when the MP appeared, reminded 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 succumb to fear.
With the tide against him, the
MP left the event during which the excited crowd kept cheering 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.
