Bungoma Senator Moses Wetang’ula sparked a heated debate on social media after he wore a pair of dirty shoes at the home of deputy president William Ruto.
The Ford Kenya leader had on Monday, May 9, accompanied other Tanga Tanga leaders to officially receive Kilifi County Assembly speaker Jimmy Kahidi to the Kenya Kwanza coalition.
Wetang’ula who was dressed in an African print shirt and grey trousers wore old brown shoes.
In what appeared to depict the real hustler, Wetangula’s pair of shoes not only appeared dusty but also worn out suggesting that they were old.
While some said old is gold, the shoes raised mixed reactions from many Kenyans online, and became the subject of jokes.
However, while a section of Kenyans mocked the vocal legislator, others noted that the shoes might be pretty pricey, something that makes the veteran Kenyan lawyer love wearing them.
Here are some of the comments:
Nobert:
“Sasa tena mmegive up on Man Weta’s drp, I thought he was transformed,”
Jimmy Ng’ang’a:
“Kiatu kimechapa, trouser nayo, I think he has several but days hajafika kwake home.”
Robert Magicho:
“Viatu za Moses Wetang’ula ni chafu tena.”
Hippo Boy:
“Wetang’ula awache kuvaa kama ni chama ca cattle dip anakuja,”
Joel Osiare:
“Wetang’ula the fifth hana kiatu,”
Ghetto rat:
“Ambia apolish viatu anachoma.”
Gill:
“Wetangula’s wife is very brutal and ruthless. What joy does she get seeing her husband in that state, over and over?”
Joseph Wainaina:
“Lakini Weta hupitia wapi? His shoes are always dusty.”
Gifton Kisera:
“The person who grooms Wetang’ula will never see heaven…Now, look at his shoes and trouser.”
