Mumias East MP Peter Salasya has denied claims that he is a United Democratic Alliance (UDA) party project, and has received funding from State House.
In a statement on Saturday, May 10, Salasya dismissed the allegations as propaganda, insisting that he had not received money from State House officials.
“Let me be crystal clear, for the avoidance of doubt: I’m not a UDA project. I am not funded by State House. I have never received a single cent—let alone Ksh40 million—from Katoo Ole Metito or any government official.
“These claims are nothing but cheap, lazy propaganda manufactured by cowards who are terrified of the political wave I am building across the nation. They can’t match the momentum, they can’t match the courage, and they can’t match the connection I have with the people—so they resort to lies,” he said.
Salasya also addressed claims that he uses the Constituency Development Fund (CDF) to tour the country, saying the funds are being used transparently and to the benefit of local residents.
“Yes, I posted my payslip. I don’t hide. I am transparent. I earn what every MP earns. But unlike others, I don’t worship money—I serve the people. What you’re witnessing isn’t money at work. It’s pure strategy, unmatched charisma, and massive goodwill from Kenyans who believe in the future I represent.

“Let me be very firm; not a single cent of Mumias East CDF has been misused. Not even a shilling. Our projects are visible, trackable, and transformative. Ask the students, the schools, the hospitals, and the parents on the ground. We’re delivering, not looting,” he further said.
On his countrywide tours and growing visibility on the national stage, Salasya said he is not an ordinary politician but a grassroots leader with a national agenda backed by ordinary Kenyans.
“To those whispering in corners, speculating how I’m able to tour the country—I am not your ordinary politician. I am a man of the people. A man of destiny. Supported by a network of patriotic Kenyans who want change—not cartels. You can’t stop this movement with gossip. You can’t slow down this fire with fear. This train has no brakes.
“And to the cowards eyeing my seat, waiting in the shadows hoping I fall—wake up! If you want to lead, come to the people with ideas, not lies. Don’t act deaf while riding on hope that Salasya will be stopped. You’re dreaming,” he said.
