Lang'ata MP-elect Felix Odiwuor Kodhe popularly known as Jalang'o has responded to the news of his former employee pleading to be rehired.
Speaking during an interview on Saturday, August 20, the politician said that he was deeply hurt to see what the two were going through.
"It hurts so much to see what they're going through. It hurts me so much. I forgave them and asked them to move on with their lives but they want to be reinstated. If it were you, would you bring them back?" he posed.
The comedian-turned-politician also divulged that the duo stole the money at a time he needed it for his campaigns.
He further asked bloggers to help him decide whether he should rehire the two or not.
"I am a man of a clean heart. Should you accept we have them back then we will surely have them back,” he added.
Jalang’o’s former groundsman pleads to be rehired
One of the two employees pleaded with Jalang'o to rehire them following their dismissal months ago after being accused of stealing money from him.
Eli Omundu asked Jalas to consider offering him employment since life has been hard for him.
"Hello Sir, please forgive me for my wrongdoings, I regret my actions, I promise I had no intentions of stealing from you, I was coerced into committing the offence. Ever since I was dismissed from my job, I have been suffering, please help me, "Eli wrote.
In his response, Jalang'o stated that he had lost trust in the two since they betrayed him.
"These guys stole money from me at a time I needed money the most. They broke the trust we had and betrayed the relationships we had built," Jalango said.
