A NASA MP has refuted claims that he lacks respect for elders.
Dagoretti North MP Simba Arati said his opponents were out to make him look disrespectful to elders.
"I have always lived respecting elders and at no point I have ever thought of abusing or doing against what their will is. I ask politicians from Kisii to focus on developent and not spreading propaganda," he said.
The lawmaker who has appointed himself as a Kisii spokesman said his role is to speak on behalf of the community in terms of politics.
“I will only be named a Kisii spokesman to speak on behalf of the community on matters politics. Elders should not panic because I am not interested in removing them from their positions,” said the ODM MP.
According to the MP, the Gusii community has been ignored because the previous spokesmen failed on their roles.
He accused them of not defending the community to benefit from Government like those in other communities.
The lawmaker was speaking on Friday when he met with Kisii professionals in Nairobi.
