In October 2019, the county boss cautioned the vocal senator over inciting the public.

According to Barchok, Langat had incited the residents of the area over shortage of medicine.

The government commented that the lawmaker was out of order considering he knew the situation the county was facing.

The predecessor to Laboso expressed that the area had been facing a financial shortage in a span of three months that led to the crisis.

The tough-talking Barchok remarked that Langat was an opportunist and sought to use the situation for political enrichment.

“It is in the public knowledge that the shortage of drugs was as a result of differences between the Senate and the National Assembly over budget” pronounced the governor.
