Bahati MP Kimani Ngunjiri has written to the Mathari Mental Hospital administration over the mental health status of Central Organization of Trade Unions (COTU) boss Francis Atwoli.
In a press conference in Nakuru on Saturday, the lawmaker questioned Atwoli's recent political remarks, especially his unending attacks on the DP, which have landed him under sharp criticism.
The MP said that he is seeking to know if the latter has had some mental problems that might be influencing his remarks, and will be collecting the results next week.
"I have written to Mathari Hospital and I will be going to collect Atwoli's mental report next week," he said.
Atwoli's controversial remarks include his claims in March that the DP will never realize his 2022 presidential bid and will not be in the ballot in the first place.
Ngunjiri now wants an official statement on the sanity of the trade unionist, which he said will be used to tie him to the ground in the instance that his prediction flops in 2022.
"Tunataka kujua kama yuko normal ili asije akasema akili yake haikuwa sawa aliposema haya (we want to know if he is normal to prevent him for claiming that he was insane at the time of the utterances)," he added.
He lashed at Atwoli for ceasing being a trade unionist and turning himself into a complete politician.
