Bahati lawmaker Kimani Ngunjiri has defended Deputy President William Ruto at a time when he seems to be facing some hostility from a rival faction of the ruling Jubilee Party.
A group of Jubilee MPs and former lawmakers led by nominated MP Maina Kamanda has been crisscrossing the nation bashing the DP for his many implications in graft.
The group has also questioned his allies' attacks on President Uhuru Kenyatta. It has also been holding weekly church attendances to lash out at him.
But in a press conference in Nakuru on Wednesday, the MP lashed out at the former Starehe legislator and his group, claiming that he has reached "political and mental menopause".
He said that Kamanda might be suffering from mental shortcomings, noting that he is even holding a seat reserved for persons with special needs and could be having a serious problem.
"Maina Kamanda has reached political menopause. He is even holding a seat for the disabled persons," he said.
He opined that though the latter appears fine, he could be hiding something bigger which is only known by the presidency, hence their decision to nominate him after losing in 2017.
"Juzi hata nilikuta watu wakibishana kama ako disabled nikawaambia hatuwezi kujua (I recently heard some people wondering if he is disabled but I told them we cannot even tell)," said the MP
Kamanda's team is made up of MPs Ngunjiri Wambugu (Nyeri Town), Former Dagoretti MP Dennis Waweru, Joshua Kuttuny (Cherangany) and Senator Isaac Mwaura (Nominated).
