The ODM Communications Director Phillip Etale has come out to attack the controversial political analyst Mutahi Ngunyi for blocking him on Twitter.
Through a post on his twitter handle on Tuesday 6th March 2018, Etale stated, "He blocked me long time ago... he thrives on lies and hates facts," after posting Mutahi Ngunyi's twitter profile showing he had actually blocked him.
This is not the first time Phillip Etale and Mutahi Ngunyi are rubbing shoulders. On 17th December 2017, Phillip Etale posted on his twitter page, "Mutahi Ngunyi is a fraud. He cons Jubilee millions of money with his comedy in the name of the '5th Column'. He is a political con man. A thief." This tweet attracted mixed reactions as respondents took sides and began bitter exchange of words.
Mutahi Ngunyi has been in conflict with many politicians over his sharp stands and stern messages. One of Mutahi Ngunyi's latest tweet that attracted divided opinions read, "Winnie Odinga will become the FIRST Luo and WOMAN President of Kenya. She will become PRESIDENT after William Ruto. You can take that PREDICTION to the BANK and use it as COLLATERAL to Borrow a LOAN."
Phillip Etale was also attacked on twitter on 9th December last year when he posted, "CS @FredMatiangi, who conducts Road Tests? Isn't it the Traffic Department of the Kenya Police? Who issues Driving Licences? Isn't the @ntsa_kenya? Ignorance has no defence."
