Several MPs especially who also served in last Parliament are baffled that a man who used to be a junior employee in Parliament is now one of them. They are finding it a bit uncomfortable because the man they used to send on petty errands somehow managed to trounce one of the political giants to capture the seat of a newly created constituency. During the Jubilee retreat in Naivasha a week ago, a female MP was heard loudly telling the new MP “I can’t believe you are now a mheshimiwa like me, how did you make it?” His humble response? "Everything is possible in God's grace!"
