Politicians should stop hopping from one funeral to another in an effort to reach the masses and prioritize development.
Rift valley Regional Commissioner George Natembeya has criticized a section of politicians in Trans Nzoia county for excessively focusing on funerals at the expense of development projects in the area.
“They have placed people in each village to inform them of funerals and who are the speakers so that they attend and request for applauses from mourners as if they are the most bereaved,” said Natembeya while speaking at Onsorogai area in Cheragany Constituency.
