“Kabogo you need to think before you open your mouth. This thing cost you 2017. One word can ruin your political career. Particularly when you join Kenya Kwanza you need to be very careful. We don’t want to lose even one vote because of bad mouth. Thank you,” Hellen said.
Another user said, “Angry William Kabogo loses temper and abuses Kiambu residents. It seems once you join Kenya Kwanza, your brain is frozen, get replaced with Bitterness & Anger.”

Kabogo is a very inept politician. He Always rubs voters the wrong way. Once he said that Kiambu women wear torn panties……..perhaps from experience. 🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🤪🤪🤪
