Kimilili Constituency Member of Parliament Didmus Barasa has said that the cap he lost in Kibra during by-elections was a counterfeit.
Speaking on Tuesday during Raidio Maisha’s Bunge la Maisha morning show, Barasa said that he was well aware that he would face trouble, and therefore decided to keep the original cap at home.
“This one is the original one, the other one was counterfeit. You don’t go into another man’s bedroom with your original belongings. You might leave your cap or coat in there. (Hii yenye nimevaa ndiyo original, ile ilikuwa counterfeit, huwezi enda bedroom ya mtu mwingine na vitu original. Unaweza wacha kofia ama koti mle ndani),” he added.
The first time Jubilee MP was roughed up in Kibra while safeguarding Jubilee candidate McDonald Mariga’s votes.
He was also accused of bribing voters alongside former Kakamega senator Boni Khalwale who got pelted with stones over the claims.
Barasa’s cap got lost when he got roughed up with Dagoreti North MP Simba Arati being accused of unleashing the goons on him.
