Kapseret MP Oscar Sudi has been been bashed left and right on social media after a an edited video emerged on Twitter of him ‘threatening’ Luos.
This writer had to get to the bottom of all the hullabaloo and we can now confidently reveal that the outspoken MP was misquoted by Raila’s followers who are keen to create a war where there is non.
In his speech, Sudi said that leaders from the Rift Valley will not accept what happened in the 2007/2008 Post Election Violence happen again because of Raila.
You can check the whole video below:
Oscar Sudi telling it as it is. No one is going to separate the communities in Rift Valley and trigger political violence. Never Again! pic.twitter.com/T2L1UaII2E— Mulmulwas (@mulmulwas) April 1, 2019
‘Sisi Kama viongozi wa bonde la ufa, kati yetu tulilumbana na Wakikuyu kwa miaka mingi.
Hatuwezi kukubali mtu mwingine atuletee tulumbane. Hatuwezikubali mtu mwingine atuletee vitina ati ikifika wakati wa kura Mkikuyu anatoka hapa anaenda Nyeri.
Hiyo tumesema hapana. Nataka kuambia nyinyi watu wa ODM hamwezi tutawanyisha na ODM
So what is wrong with the above statement? Sudi was actually preaching peace and not war like some people want us to believe.
Social media in Kenya has become so toxic, with most people trying to frame messages to fit a certain agenda. The fact that the Luo community and not even Kikuyus are the ones reacting tells a lot.
How did a message calling for peaceful co-existence turn out to be an incitement message?
The Luo community is very hypocritical. The following is a video of Moses Kuria insulting Raila and calling his followers as devils.
And the following is another video of Moses Kuria receiving a king’s welcome in Kisumu because of the handshake.
So why didn’t they make a lot of noise like they are doing on Oscar Sudi. This just political noise making.
