Mixed Reactions as Beef Between Khalwale and Salasya Escalates.
Mixed Reactions as Beef Between Khalwale and Salasya Escalates: While responding to the viral video of Mumias East Member of parliament PK Salasya slapping an MCA, Kakamega Senator Boni Khalwale opined that our leaders have gone mad.
Khalwale stated,”Our leaders have gone mad. From an MP shooting a DJ to another one shooting a man dead, to others pitting rival goons against each other and now to this! Kenyan voters must seriously retrospect.”
In a rebuttal, MP Salasya accused Khalwale of being the mastermind behind a fight against him for political mileage to awaken his “dwindling political following”.
Salasya stated,”The reason people like Boni Khalwale and Fernandes Barasa are fighting me is because they don’t have a following… if today I call a meeting of 20,000 people they will come. Them they can’t (sic). I will not accept any intimidation. Leadership comes from God as long as mtu wa chini ako satisfied with my leadership hawa wengine tutakimbizana nao tu.”
However, Khalwale drew back saying he never initiated any fight against the Mumias East MP, citing that he had no reason to fight him.
Khalwale posed,”Sasa ona huyu! Eti Khalwale fighting Salasya! For what?”
This comes after The Member of parliament was arrested for Assault and was released on Ksh50,000 cash bail pending his arraignment on Tuesday, January 16.
