The two engaged in a heated Twitter exchange on Sunday after the senator revisited the cancellation of Kimwarer dam terming it a political move.

"The beautiful Kimwarer River. One day the devil and his lies will be ashamed. Long live the truth. Video recorded by Area MCA JK Tanui and forwarded by Meshack Kiplagat," Murkomen stated.

However, the Point Blank host defended the president stating that corruption by local leaders was the reason President Uhuru Kenyatta cancelled the project.

"Uhuru cancelled your pet project of Kimwarer Dam because of unimaginable looting; how the leadership of the rift including you can steal from their own people and deny them prosperity later to blame Mt. Kenya and our president is beyond me," Gachoka responded.

Gachoka's tweet angered Murkomen who alleged that the political analyst has specialised in attacking DP William Ruto on his show. He dared him to invite Baringo Senator Gideon Moi to the show and explain his links with South Sudan.

"Concentrate on attacking William Ruto at Point Blank. The last time you swore with all your life that UhuRuto will be jailed in Hague when did the president become yours?" the senator said.
