Narok Governor Patrick Ole Ntuntu fires back at ODM leader Raila Odinga after he attacked him while visiting Narok County on Sunday last week.

In a statement on Tuesday, September 5, Governor Ntuntu asked Raila to respect him saying the opposition leader is the age mate of his father. 

“Dear Raila Odinga, Heshima ni pande mbili. Wacha matusi. Wewe ni Mzee rika ya Baba yangu, unanitusi Kwa nini?” he posed. 

The Narok Governor went on to say he will not respect the former Prime Minister if he does not reciprocate the respect.

“Hii maneno yako ya kuja kutukana Governor hatuwezi kubali. Wewe ni baba yangu lakini heshima ni pande mbili sasa wewe vile umekosa hata sisi watoto wako tutakosa heshima,” Ntuntu stated. 

He further accused the Azimio leader of coming empty-handed while visiting Narok on Sunday adding that the Maasai community will not allow him to dupe them.

“Jana ulikuja hakuna kitu ulileta, William atarudi mwezi inakuja kuzindua industry sasa wewe ukikuja kupiga kelele na kurudi bure, hata sadaka huezi tolea watoto wa Maasai, sasa tumechanuka hii maneno yako kila mtu amejua ni ya uongo,” the Narok Governor added.

The remarks comes after Raila opened a warpath with Narok Governor Patrick Ole Ntutu, accusing the Governor of frustrating opposition parties in the county.

“Huyo gavana yenu eti anasema ati watu wa ODM wataenda wapi. Waende wapi? Yeye anajua siku ODM ilitengenezwa?” Raila posed. 

Raila further claimed that Narok Governor Ole Ntutu is using his position to rubber stamp his election that had been contested in court.

“Kama yeye anajiamini sii atoke ofisini turudi kwa debe, sisi tutamshinda” Raila added. 

On the same day, police attempted to block Azimio la Umoja – One Kenya coalition leader Raila Odinga from accessing Narok town.

The area OCPD was heard explaining to Raila that there was a “big procession” in Narok town and that the police’s interventions were meant to avoid any possible clashes.

However, Raila lamented that as a former prime minister, he did not deserve such a treatment.
