Kandara Member of Parliament Alice Wahome has condemned Murang'a Woman Rep Sabina Chege and her nominated counterpart Maina Kamanda for allegedly using university students for political gains.
In an address through her social media platform on Thursday, Wahome claimed that University of Nairobi and Mt Kenya University students were ferried to Kandara to disrupt her function on Wednesday.
The function was organized to issued bursary checks to students in Kandara.
Wahome cited that the bursary issued was to benefit the alleged students who had been hired to disrupt the event.
""It is unfortunate and reckless that Hon Maina Kamanda, Hon Sabina Chege and Hon Joshua Toro can go to an extent of using naive University students ( UON) and MKU ) to come Kandara and cause chaos and violence during bursary issuance. Bursary that should facilitate the learning of the same students. They can’t engage their own children in such but they have the guts to engage and ruin the future of these young minds. 22 of them were arrested yesterday," said Wahome.
The over 20 youths were arrested and taken to Muranga police station set to be arraigned in court on Thursday.
