Moments after Machakos Governor Alfred Mutua appeared at Kilimani police station to record a statement on alleged death threats from Deputy President William Ruto and his friends, Kenyans on Twitter (KOT) have taken to their accounts to roast the governor with funny reactions.
On Monday morning, Mutua filed a complaint at the station decrying threats he claims to have received at an event at State House, Nairobi a week ago.
Addressing members of the press shortly after recording the statement, the county boss disclosed that he was threatened by senior government officials led by Deputy President William Ruto, National Assembly majority leader Aden Duale and his Senate counterpart Kipchumba Murkomen of dire consequences if he continues fighting the DP.
According to the Maendeleo Chap Chap party governor, the three leaders promised on two different occasions to teach him a lesson, something he alleged was giving him sleepless nights.
Despite this, the seemingly unforgiving Kenyans, instead of sympathising with the governor, grabbed the opportunity to mock him with humorous comments and memes.
According to many of the users, the governor was only trying to attract cheap attention from the public something they opined was purely meant for political mileage.
This Alfred Mutua is just an attention seeking Drama King. All that convo. looks scripted. He's just bitter and afraid of the future;He's scared since Ruto was seen with Kalonzo. He's afraid of being politically irrelevant come 2022 coz def.hakuna mahali RaiHuru will take him. pic.twitter.com/5VPfOek4PU

@j_madanga Replying to@DrAlfredMutua kenyans problems will not be solved by PR stunts currently becoming a fashion on media pretending to fight for us. If mutua thinks any leader wants to kill him, let him know we common mwananchi had been poisoned with mercury and aflatoxins long ago. We are just waiting to die!” tweeted one user.

Alfred Mutua fears for his life because William Ruto told him, "I will deal with you. Nitakugonga sasa." Ati Ruto did it while looking at him with strong eyes and a tough face. If that was a death threat watu wa Arsenal wangekuwa police station kila siku ๐๐๐

Despite this, there were those users who insisted that Mutua’s claims could be valid hence should be treated with the seriousness it deserves.
Alfred Mutua was threatened at state House "Kugongwa" my friend!
BRIEFLY:
1. Alfred Mutua is scared of a William Ruto presidency.
2. Kalonzo Musyoka is scared of working with Ruto
3. Peter Munya proudly hates working with William Ruto
4. Jacob Juma is now slain…
