Sunday, January 14, 2024 - Kenyans have attacked Mumias East Member of Parliament, Peter Salasya, after he assaulted a local MCA at a funeral in his constituency.
In the video, Salasya,
elected to the Democratic Action Party-Kenya (DAP-K) ticket, was addressing
mourners when Malaha/Isongo/Makunga MCA Peter Walunya Indimuli appeared to
disrupt the lawmaker's speech.
Salasya, donning a white
suit, repeatedly pleaded with Indimuli to go and sit, but in vain.
"Enda kaa chini sasa. (Go
sit down)," the MP told Indimuli before descending on him with a slap.
Salasya's security
detail and members of the public were forced to intervene and bring the
situation back to normal.
Salaysa was later
arrested and is out on a police bond of Sh 50,000.
The outspoken MP will be
charged on Tuesday with assault,
causing physical harm and creating a disturbance in a way that could lead to a
breach of peace.
Most Kenyans who
witnessed the incident accused the opposition MP of being drunk with power.
