“Tell us how you can fight corruption, tell us where the money which was meant for dams is, tell us where you take what you are stealing before you come here to address us,” said Onyonka.

“Raila is an elder who was brutalised and jailed for Kenya to have freedom. Kenya is what it is because of him,” he said.

“Ruto is my agemate and should cease from abusing Raila. They steal and divide among themselves, then they come to church and lie to christians,” added Onyonka.
