The first time MP said the Kakamega lawmaker whose identity he did not reveal was bitter about something he said during a past function.
“I told him the truth days ago and because he knew I would come to the burial and be treated to a warm welcome, he staged youths to block me,” he said.
“That is using youths for the wrong purpose. They have now destroyed this vehicle.”
