Sunday, November 24, 2024 – President William Ruto’s Senior Economic Advisor, Moses Kuria, faced a harsh reception in Murang'a, where he was heckled and chased away from a burial ceremony over the impeachment of former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua.
Kuria was met by an irate
congregation at the funeral service of Mark Gicheru, a Member of the County Assembly
(MCA) who recently passed away.
Irate mourners reacted angrily
to Kuria as he spoke at the late MCA’s funeral at Wangu Kiharu.
To quell the rising tensions, the priest presiding over the service resorted to leading a worship hymn.
Despite this, the angry congregants could still be heard voicing their fury.
Kuria was left in a state
of confusion as the scenario unfolded, resulting in his speech being cut short.
Consequently, Kuria had to leave
the podium to avoid further aggression from the congregants.
In a sign of defiance to the
government, the crowd further expressed their frustrations by heckling a
representative of Deputy President Kithure Kindiki off the stage.
The representative was set to read a speech from the DP.
The clergy, clearly under
pressure to control the situation, advised the representative to hand the
speech to the family of the deceased MCA to manage affairs.
Over the past few months, the
political landscape in Mt. Kenya has pointed to a region in limbo after the
impeachment of Gachagua.
During that period Kuria
was vocal about Gachagua, voicing his criticism of the former second-in-command.
This is level of petty is admirable.
