Gatundu South Member of Parliament Moses Kuria has regretted attending the Mt Kenya politicians caucus meeting hosted by President Uhuru Kenyatta in Nyeri on Friday.
The MP says that he feels humiliated after he was put to sit on the grass under the scorching sun, and is of the idea that the meeting flopped.
He says that he flew from Nairobi on a chopper, and is of the opinion that the event was used by the organizers to humiliate those in attendance.
“Which unity are we talking about? I flew from Nairobi on a chopper, when I got to Sagana I was shown where to sit on the grass in the sun as if one needs to be shown where to sit in an open space. The meeting flopped," he told the Standard on Saturday.
According to Kuria, the unity call, which was the main theme of the event was fake, given that only a selected group was allowed to address the function, locking out others.
According to him, the entire issue was a waste of time and a function that was choreographed to achieve another goal, different from what it was being drawn as seeking to achieve.
“I regret attending it. It was a waste of time and nothing was achieved. It was choreographed to achieve the organisers' intentions,” he added.
In his speech, Uhuru stressed on the need for unity in the region, also rallying the politicians behind the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI).
He also defended his working relationship with ODM leader Raila Odinga, with whom he struck a truce in March last year.
