Chepalungu MP Victor Koech, popularly known as Mandazi, has set the record straight on his alleged confrontation with President William Ruto’s personal assistant Farouk Kibet.
In a statement on Sunday evening, December 29, the MP termed the claims as fake, noting that the letter bearing the claims was fabricated by his rivals in an attempt to tarnish his reputation.
“My attention has been drawn to a fake, malicious, and entirely fabricated letter making rounds on social media, falsely alleging that there was a scuffle reported at Koiwa during President Ruto’s function. This was a baseless claim, accompanied by a fake letter with no stamp, signature, and correct office address. This was a deliberate attempt by my competitors to mislead, tarnish my reputation, and sow confusion.

“These allegations are not only false but also a calculated effort by my competitors to undermine and distract me from my public service. I strongly condemn the use of fake news to manipulate public perception and instigate discord. The attempt to connect me and my office to this propaganda through unfounded allegations is not only defamatory but an affront to the principles of justice and fairness,” he said.
The letter had alleged that Kibet and Mandazi got into a heated confrontation at AIC Konoin where Ruto was attending a church service on Sunday.
The letter added that the situation escalated leading to an altercation in which Kibet slapped the legislator.
“We would like to clarify that Hon. Mandazi did not instigate the conflict. The incident is currently under investigation, and the relevant authorities are reviewing the matter thoroughly to ensure that justice is served in line with the law. Hon. Mandazi has remained composed and committed to the peace and unity of the people of Chepalungu, even amid this unfortunate occurrence,” the fake letter read in part.
