Kapseret MP Oscar Sudi has sparked debate after making remarks about former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua’s security measures.
Speaking during a public event, Sudi questioned why Gachagua would appear in protective gear such as a military-style helmet and bulletproof vest, yet not carry tear gas for personal protection.
“Gachagua ako na helmet ya jeshi na bullet proof vest, mbona asikuwe na teargas yake?” Sudi posed.
The comments have generated mixed reactions, with some supporters interpreting the statement as political satire, while others have criticized it as unnecessary provocation amid rising political tensions.
The remarks come at a time when security concerns around political leaders remain a sensitive issue, especially following recent public events that have drawn large crowds.
The statement has added to the ongoing political exchanges between leaders aligned to different camps, further fueling national conversations around safety, leadership, and political rhetoric.
