Hostile Crowd Silences Governor Natembeya for Criticizing Ruto's Leadership

Trans Nzoia Governor George Natembeya faced a fierce backlash on Monday 3, after mourners shut off his microphone while he criticized President William Ruto’s policies during the funeral of Malava MP Malulu Injendi.

The governor wasted no time in attacking the leadership of President Ruto, Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi, and National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetang’ula under his ‘Tawe’ Movement.

“We want to say ‘Tawe’ to bad leadership and corruption. Our leaders are at the top, and Kenyans are on their own. We must reject politicians who hire people to cause violence at funerals,” Natembeya declared.

However, before he could finish, someone deliberately muted his microphone, leaving him to struggle against the crowd’s growing hostility.

The hostility escalated, forcing him to flee in his car. Some attendees hurled stones, intensifying the chaos.
