Monday, February 3, 2025 - Kapseret MP Oscar Sudi, alongside Rift Valley UDA politicians, led a fundraiser over the weekend for Moi’s Bridge residents who lost property in a fire.
The event saw over Ksh 10 million raised, with the Uasin
Gishu County Government contributing Ksh 2 million.
However, this display of generosity has sparked criticism
from Kenyans who accuse politicians of using harambees to launder stolen public
funds.
Many question why leaders donate millions while essential
services remain underfunded.
Concerns have also been raised about accountability.
During the 2023 Londiani tragedy, where 52 people died in a
road accident, similar political contributions exceeded Ksh 10 million, yet
some victims’ families never received the promised funds. Critics argue that
such events serve more as public relations stunts than genuine support for
affected citizens.
As politicians continue splashing cash, many Kenyans demand
transparency, urging the government to prioritize structured disaster response
over politically charged fundraising.
