Malindi Member of Parliament Aisha Jumwa has lately become the talk of the town after she converted a popular Christian worship song to praise Deputy President William Ruto.
Jumwa's 'remix' made her the most trending topic for the better part of Tuesday as netizens expressed varied reactions over 'Ruto' s worship song'.
Some of Kenya's best legal minds, Prof Makau Mutua, and Miguna Miguna, were also not left behind in giving their opinions concerning the controversial MP.
Jumwa was elected on former Prime Minister Raila Odinga-led Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) party, but is now supporting Ruto, the Jubilee deputy party leader.
Mutua, a US-based law scholar, said even though Jumwa was a flip-flopper politician, she was dwarfed by former Kakamega Senator Boni Khalwale, who recently dumped Bungoma Senator Moses Wetang'ula's Ford-Kenya for Jubilee.
The lawyer likened the two to the famous and undefeated wrestler, Amalinze the Cat, in Chinua Achebe's 'Things Fall Apart', who was finally thrown out of the contest by 'amateur' Okonkwo.
"MP Jumwa isn't the first flip-flopping politician. Many, like Boni Khalwale, beat her to the punch. But unlike Amalinze the Cat -- Okonkwo's avatar -- none will land on their feet in 2022. Flip-floppers will land hard on their backs," Mutua tweeted on Tuesday.
But in a quick rejoinder, Miguna dragged Raila into the debate, saying he was the 'chief flip-flopper' following his March 9, 2018, handshake with President Uhuru Kenyatta, who allegedly stole his poll win.
"Uhuru Kenyatta is the illegitimate President deputised by Ruto. They both stole Raila's victory in 2017 and killed his supporters. But Raila now supports Uhuru. Khalwale and Jumwa support Ruto. Isn't Raila the chief flip-flopper and betrayer?" the Canadian-based lawyer posed.
