Saboti MCA David Kapoloman was heckled and ejected from the Mashujaa Day fete after a verbal altercation with area MP Caleb Amisi.
The MCA found himself on the receiving end after he threatened to “punch” Amisi.
The incident took place in Saboti Market , Saboti Subcounty where the Trans Nzoia County marked this year’s Mashujaa day celebrations.
The confrontation started after Amisi asked Kapoloman who is allied to Kiminini MP Chris Wamalwa to stop attacking him in funerals.
“It is not right to insult me in funerals. You have even gone ahead to abuse our Governor which is not good at all. I will not stomach your insults” Amisi told Kapoloman.
Before Amisi completed his speech, Kapoloman rose and threatened to rough him up.
The public heckled the MCA and asked him to leave or else they “teach him a lesson”
Amisi told Hot News that Kapoloman, together with his 2017 competitor Joseph Pepela, they have been tarnishing his name.
Amisi said Kapoloman has also been misleading residents about the Building Bridges Initiative report.
He also threatened to beat up the MCA if he doesn’t stop insulting him.
He asked local leaders to respect each other.
The Sunday event was attended by Governor Patrick Khaemba and County Commissioner Sam Ojwang.
Reacting to the incident, Ojwang asked politicians to respect each other.

After he was ejected from the event, its not known where the MCA went to.
