Gatundu South Member of Parliament Moses Kuria has dismissed claims by the government that two people identified as Brenda and Brian had been healed from COVID-19.
On Wednesday, April 1, President Uhuru Kenyatta held a televised meeting with two recovered coronavirus patients.
The president who was at State House engaged with the recovered patients, Brenda and Brian who were at Afya House.
The President identified the two patients as Brenda Cherotich who was the first patient to test positive for the virus in the country and Brian Orina who got infected by Brenda.
“Brenda we have been referring to you as patient 1, it was necessary to keep your details confidential but you are a special woman and a special young Kenyan because immediately you felt something was wrong, realizing what was happening in the world and without being coerced or pushed by your parents you took it upon yourself to go to Kenyatta Hospital and to tell them you were not well. We are very proud of you Brenda,” the President stated
Confident Brenda and Brian narrated how they discovered they had the virus and their journey to recovery.
However, Moses Kuria argues that the head of state was misled on this.
Mr Kuria has termed the President’s meeting with Brenda and Brian as the Prophet Owuor healing Press Conference for the Brenda & Brian Initiative, arguing that the government performed badly on COVID-19.
He says that Kenyans should not be fooled, but continue staying safe.
The controversial lawmaker argues that coronavirus is a very lethal killer. He says 100,000 Americans will die in the next two weeks as confirmed by President Trump.
He further argues that someone misled President Kenyatta, arguing that the head of state is lonely.
According to Moses Kuria, President Kenyatta is missing his deputy, Dr William Ruto.
“From a communications point of view, the Government of Kenya performed badly on COVID-19 yesterday. Forget the Prophet Owuor healing Press Conference for the Brenda & Brian Initiative. Do not be fooled. Continue keeping safe. Corona Virus is a very lethal killer. 100,000 Americans will die in the next 2 weeks as confirmed by President Trump. I think someone misled my President yesterday. And I think my President is lonely. And I think my President misses his Deputy,” he posted.
