Description

Two days after President William Ruto’s Trans Nzoia rallies, where he reportedly called Governor George Natembeya “kumbafu”, Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna walked into Natembeya’s Milimani residence with the Linda Mwananchi team. On Friday, October 16, 2026, they met aspirants from across the county, and Sifuna took a direct swipe at Ruto, saying he is cornered and has resorted to insults because he is going home. This follows Wednesday’s chaos in Kiminini, where Natembeya arrived to a sea of supporters minutes after Ruto’s motorcade left. He claims the market was built with county and World Bank money, and says he will replace any presidential plaque with his own name. In this video: Sifuna and Natembeya’s meeting with Trans Nzoia aspirants Sifuna’s “he is cornered” swipe at Ruto The Kiminini market fight: county funds, World Bank support, traders’ stalls and the threatened court action Ruto’s “kumbafu” remarks and the national government’s side of the story The 2027 governor race: Kakai Bisau, Chris Wamalwa and Susan Nakhumicha What Natembeya’s statement left unsaid Who owns Trans Nzoia?
