Kapseret Member of Parliament Oscar Sudi now claims that the looting and vandalism of his newly launched Timber XO club in Eldoret was planned.
Speaking on Wednesday, June 26, Sudi alleged that politicians from the Rift Valley region planned the vandalism.
The UDA lawmaker condemned the move saying he has never thought of destroying anyone’s property. “I have never in my life planned to destroy people’s property.
My work has always been helping people who don’t have parents, building churches, and other things. We know people who organized it and the leaders are from home,” said Sudi.
At the same time, the Kapseret MP suspended all his planned activities including charity events and fundraising until further notice until further notice.“I will not say anything bad but since it has become something else let me also rest and suspend everything that I had planned until further notice,” Sudi stated.
He continued “You destroyed the county and where people do plans for development or destroy the business belonging to a person from the area. It’s okay. I wish you well.”
The Timber XO club was on Tuesday looted after unknown people marched from Eldoret CBD to the premises and destroyed the gate, glass walls, windows, and doors.
In a video seen by Nairobileo.co.ke the angry youth pelted stones at the club while others brought down the gate.
The irate youth also stole alcohol and other properties of unknown value. Photos circulated on social media showed people carrying bottles of expensive liquor from the club.
Timber XO was opened a few weeks ago in an event graced by several MPs.
