Kimani Ichung’wah Heckled In Front Of President Ruto In Nyandarua

Kikuyu Member of Parliament Kimani Ichung’wah faced a tough time while addressing a crowd during President William Ruto’s development tour in Ol Kalou, Nyandarua County.

The incident began when the MP was called to speak immediately after ICT CS Eliud Owalo (Note: Correction—William Kabogo is not the current ICT CS; Eliud Owalo holds the position as of 2023) addressed the crowd.

As Ichung’wah took his position atop his vehicle, the crowd turned hostile as he attempted to promote the government’s agenda.

Amid chants from the crowd, the MP was heard defiantly telling off the hecklers in the Kikuyu dialect, saying, “No one sells me fear.”

However, the agitated attendees refused to relent.

Despite his efforts to calm the situation, the crowd continued disrupting his speech, making it impossible for him to proceed.

Ichung’wah is among the leaders accompanying President Ruto on his Mount Kenya tour to inspect ongoing projects in the region.

The President commissioned several development projects, including the Ol Kalou Water Project, J.M. Memorial Hospital Complex, Last Mile Connectivity initiative, and a sewerage project in Ol Kalou Constituency.

He also laid the foundation stone for the construction of affordable housing in Ol Kalou Town.

Earlier, Ruto hosted several women at Sagana State Lodge in honor of the late Ann Wanjiru Mumbuchi, a grassroots leader best remembered for passionately steering the 1,000-member Mathira Women Choir.

“President William Ruto hosted Mathira women at Sagana State Lodge for breakfast to honor the late Ann Wanjiru Mumbuchi (Muchiru), praising her dedication to women’s empowerment in the constituency and her participation in development activities. May her soul rest in peace,” he stated.
