Bungoma senator elect on Tuesday asked that his aide be reinstated saying that the due process was not followed.
Speaking to KTN News, Wetangula said that Lonyang’ was a good man. He also pointed out that he was endangering his life by walking alone without ‘his boy.’
”As you can see, I am just walking alone. This in fact puts my life in danger. So ideally I am not safe and this impunity should stop.
He is good guy, courteous enough and I doubt if he created any disturbance as being alleged by the police, so I cannot say that he is a of deviant character. Something must be wrong.”
