Former Subukia lawmaker Koigi wa Wamwere has faulted Bahati Member of Parliament Kimani Ngunjiri for allegedly siding with the killer Solai dam owner.
The dam broke its banks on Wednesday night, sweeping away an entire village and leaving massive property destruction.
Speaking on Sauti Ya Mwananchi Radio Friday, Koigi recalled Ngunjiri praising the dam owner and proprietor of the Patel horticultural ranch Mr Mansukul Patel for his agricultural prowess in a press briefing on Thursday, terming it an unfortunate observation.
''I have heard Bahati MP Kimani Ngunjiri heaping praises on the Patel Farm owner for his agricultural success and describing him as a 'skilled farmer' but that is a completely wrong observation as we have lost lives and property as a result of the very same person's agricultural activities,'' he said.
The death toll for the event has since hit close to 50, with more people still missing.
According to the Kenya Red Cross, over 500 families have been left homeless as a result of the flooding.
The dam is one of the seven owned by Patel in the area, with experts already embarking on draining the remaining reservoirs to prevent similar scenarios.
The government has since called for calm, with Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang'i calling upon Kenyans to avoid speculations and await results of an ongoing probe.
