'Teacher of Law' Murkomen Under Fire Over NASA Petition Comment

Elgeyo Marakwet senator, Kipchumba Murkomen, took to Twitter to share his thoughts on the NASA petition that was filed in court on Friday evening.

The lawyer said that he had gone through the 25000 page petition and found it to be hollow and full of deceptive stories.

As a teacher of law I saw 25000 pages of hollow and deceptive stories. Lots of form without substance.

The unforgiving KoT had none of it and had to counter the Senator’s thoughts.

Some wondered how it was possible for him to have read the 25000 page document in such a short time.

Here are some of the replies and reactions shared by the KoT:

Supreme Court will decide my brother @kipmurkomen matters before Court will be prejudice if we discuss.

The tweet elicited many comments most of which doubted if Mr. Murkomen was indeed a teacher of law.
