VIDEO: Tanga Tanga, Kieleweke MPs Trade Blows at Church Altar

Two Members of Parliament were on Sunday September 8, 2019 reported to have traded blows at a Church function when chaos erupted.

The two, nominated MP Maina Kamanda allie to the Kieleweke faction of Jubilee Party and Kiharu MP Ndindi Nyoro who is allied to Jubilee’s Tanga Tanga faction traded blows at Gitu Catholic Church in Murang’ a County  when they clashed over who should be allowed to welcome leaders present to the altar to speak .

According to Daily Nation, the incident happened during a fundraising by the Kieleweke faction of the Jubilee party, that Nyoro stopped the function over the protocol and insisted on taking over the function.

It is reported that Kiharu MP came in late after over 20 members allied to the Kieleweke movement had taken their seats.

Kamanda is reported to have been on his feet then addressing the crowd and Kiharu MP waited for his turn.

When his turn came, he addressed the crowd and insisted on inviting a guest to speak, a matter that Kamanda objected to.

“I can’t allow people from Nairobi to come and take over my constituency as if they know this area. I am an elected leader and I tell Kamanda to his face that let them produce the list of the guests so that I can invite them,” Nyoro maintained.

This tussle led to his supporters flooding the altar in support of their Member of Parliament.

Efforts by the church heads to intervene amounted to naught as the warring parties pushed them to the edge of the crowd that had milled in front.
