Self-proclaimed Gusii spokesman Simba Arati has rubbished off claims by a section of his critics that he is not married.
At a function in Kisii, the vocal Dagoretti North MP said, he has a wife and a number of children contrary to what critics say.
"I have been to many places in both Kisii and Nyamira counties and am saddened with the fact that there are some leaders calling me a small boy.
"I am a married man and those claiming I should get a life should use some other propaganda," he said.
The MP however challenged all elective leaders from the area to ensure that they deliver their promises to the locals to avoid backlash in 2022.
On Sunday at several stopovers in Nyamira County, Arati was however endorsed by a section of leaders for his quest as Gusii spokesperson.
