The onslaught by Wanjala started after he referred to Ababu as a ‘Budalang’i resident’ in a facebook post where the current MP had posed alongside other leaders; Busia Governor Sospeter Ojaamong and Water CS Eugene Wamalwa.

“Earlier today I together with Busia county Governor His Excellency Sospeter Odeke Ojaamong attended the signing of KES 10 billion Lower Nzoia irrigation project phase 1 in Busia County with Sino Hydro Corp Ltd at Maji house.

“The function was hosted by water and Irrigation CS Eugene Wamalwa.With us is a Budalangi resident Mr Ababu Namwamba,” posted Wanjala

By the time of this publication, the post had elicited over 1000 reactions with the ‘Budalangi resident’ part forming a huge junk of the discussion.
