The resident wanted to know why the Mheshimiwa would not use his good relations with the PNU wing of the coalition to bail out the financially crippled Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital in Eldoret and stop picketing at the hospital. The infuriated MP swiftly replied to the concerned resident, "U must be an idiot". The man has now threatened to sue the MP for this nasty reply.

A senior political writer for a leading daily is being sought in Kisii after disappearing with a bill of Sh3,100 from a local bar.
