Kapseret MP Oscar Sudi has revealed that he and his friends raised Ksh45 million to purchase essential goods for distribution across the constituency.
Speaking during the handover ceremony on Friday, June 6, Sudi noted that the funds were privately mobilized and not sourced from public coffers.
The MP was quick to clarify that none of the funds came from the government, insisting that the initiative was a purely private effort.
“My friends and I talked and raised Ksh45 million which has been used to buy these goods. I want to make it clear that from the money raised, not even a shilling came from the government; not even a cent,” he said.
Sudi also credited his resourcefulness and ability to mobilize support as a key reason for his continued empowerment.
“I have always said that I’m an ‘engineer’ and it is because of that that you have elected me for three terms; as an MP, I had to develop networks. That’s why I was telling you to elect leaders who have networks,” he added.
Sudi is among local leaders who have been on the spot for making large contributions, especially to churches, sparking mixed reactions from Kenyans.
However, in the wake of these criticisms, Sudi has maintained that politicians will continue giving to the church as they are also part of the body of Christ.

He also called on the church leaders to forgive them for any wrongdoings, further calling upon them to guide the current political leadership where necessary.
“I can see that the Bishops are unhappy and they now want to refund the money donated to the church. I want to ask for forgiveness because sometimes we go straight to the local churches without going through them. I don’t understand where the problem is,” he said in November 2024.
In a video he shared on social media, Sudi expressed that it was not the politicians’ fault for participating in harambees.
He explained that local church leaders are the ones who approach them to assist in raising funds for various projects.
“Those local pastors and believers are the ones who make contributions until some of them run away because they have to contribute every Sunday. I wonder why someone would oppose help being offered in the local churches,” he remarked.
