Fake news has been spread on social media that Uasin Gishu Governor aspirant Jonathan Bii has been distributing UDA branded underpants to women in the County.
Bii told Hot News that his opponents are out to tarnish his name by spreading propaganda.
He sent Hot News an original picture which was edited to say that he had branded women underpants with his name and the UDA logo.
Bii handlers blamed his political opponents led by Ambassador Julius Bitok for the smear campaign.
They said they won’t win come what may.
Kesses residents said that Julius Bitok has been bribing pollsters to rank him ahead of the rest.
“Bitok has been boasting that the UDA ticket is under lock and key. Several polsters have ranked him number one, yet he is not even popular,” said Moses Tonui from Kesses.
In a video seen by Hot News, Professor Bitok is heard telling Jonathan Bii that he can only qualify for position of CECM Education and Culture or if he ( Bitok ) will call higher powers in Nairobi to instruct that Bii be appointment CAS ( Chief Administrative Secretary)
“Niangalie vizuri…. Ikifika tahere 9 August 2022 nitakuwa naapishwa kama Governor wa pili wa Uasin Gishu. I have two words for you ….kuja nikupee CEC member for Education, culture and social services ….ama nitaambia Nairobi uende ukue CaS,” Bitok is heard telling Bii in a video that has gone viral.
Those who witnessed the altercation said Bitok called Bii famously known as “Koti Moja” to tell him that UDA headquarters have asked him to tell “Koti Moja” not to bother campaigning for Governor…”ati afanye kazi ya kusanya Kura ya DP”.
