In a tweet on Saturday, Etale noted that any right-minded individual who was fond of using the lawmaker as a mouthpiece to abuse other leaders was mad.

He took exception with the legislator's sentiments which demeaned Central Organization of Trade Unions (COTU) Secretary General Francis Atwoli by referring to him as a 'conman' and termed Sudi's remarks as 'silly' and 'balderdash'.

The ODM official opined that the Kapseret MP had no authority to make such comments.

"Any sane man who sends Oscar Sudi to spew vitriol about other leaders must be INSANE. Infact more INSANE than Oscar himself. Referring to @AtwoliDza as a conman is in itself silly and balderdash. Oscar has no locus standi to make such unwarranted remarks," tweeted Etale.

On Saturday at his rural home in Eldoret, the Kapseret MP also hit out at President Uhuru Kenyatta's perceived close allies for frustrating the government and the ruling party.

He singled out former Jubilee party interim vice-chairman David Murathe and trade unionist Francis Atwoli as individuals who were hellbent in ensuring that the much-sought unity and prosperity championed by the government does not see the light of the day.
