Narc Kenya party leader Martha Karua censured self-proclaimed Bunge la Mwananchi President Calvince Okoth alias Gaucho over his remarks about nominated MP Sabina Chege.
Speaking on Monday, May 22, 2023, during the National Delegates Conference (NDC) at the Ngong Racecourse in Nairobi, Karua cautioned Gaucho against castigating people on the basis of gender.
"Iko kijana yangu moja aliongea hapa na nimemwambia nitamkosoa kidogo. Ata ikiwa ni mtu ametukosea, awe mama au baba tusimwingilie kimaumbile, tuingilie vitendo vyake. Please stop yourself from issuing any criticism or insult that is gender-based," Karua stated.
Gaucho made derogatory remarks against Sabina Chege while criticizing the perceived rebel legislator over her role in a vicious power struggle that has rocked the Jubilee party in recent months.
Gaucho offered lunch
Meanwhile, Gaucho was promised lunch by former President Uhuru Kenyatta as he recognized his efforts in defending the Jubilee party.
Gaucho was among the youth who showed up at the former Jubilee Party headquarters in Kileleshwa, Nairobi, on April 26, 2023, in the wake of heated party wrangles between supporters of then acting secretary general Kanini Kega and suspended secretary general Jeremiah Kioni.
“I was not aware our office had been raided but even though I was alone I had to go and defend the property of my people. Some youths showed up to defend their party and resist the injustice that was taking place,” he said.
Adding;
“I am thankful to them and that Gaucho they have been talking about, if I see him again I will buy you lunch, don’t worry. Police were called and refused to come so these young people had to do what they had to do and God bless them and may they keep up the strong work.”
