Mumias East MP Peter Salasya on Sunday, March 23, 2025, faced it rough when he showed up at Nyayo National Stadium for the World Cup Qualifier pitting Kenya’s Harambee Stars against Gabon.

Salasya was roughed up at the stadium, beaten and forced to flee after he encountered a hostile reception.

A section of Kenyans had made it clear earlier on that they would not entertain politicians during the Harambee Stars vs Gabon match, that is currently underway.

However, Salasya’s attackers are heard telling him to respect the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) party leader Raila Odinga.

A video shared on X by popular sports journalist Kevin Teya shows the controversial lawmaker being roughed up by a section of the fans as they escoted him out of the Nyayo National Stadium.
