Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Langata MP, Jalango, seen paying tfare for Matatu passengers after he voted for fuel price to be increased to Ksh 195.53.
Langata MP Jalango voted for fuel price to be increased to Ksh 195.53.
A video, shared by Gabriel Oguda, captured the MP inviting passengers waiting at a matatu stage within his constituency to board the bus while assuring them that he would cover their fare. In the video, the former radio host could be seen personally selecting two matatus and paying for the fares of all the passengers, allowing them to travel to town without any financial burden.
Njoroge questioned how Jalang’o would be able to finance daily fare payments for his constituents and how many people in the entire Lang’ata constituency he could cater to on a regular basis.
“You go to parliament and vote for fuel prices to be increased to Ksh 195.53, therefore affecting fare prices. Afterwards, you go hopping from one matatu stage to another, paying fare for people.
How long will you sustain this, and in the entire Lang’ata constituency, how many people can you cater for every day? This is madness!!” Njoroge tweeted.
Njoroge raised concerns about the MP’s recent support for the Finance Bill, which has increased the price of petrol and contributed to the high cost of living in Kenya.
In a tweet directed at Jalang’o, Njoroge highlighted the irony of his actions and questioned the sustainability of his philanthropy towards his constituents.
She pointed out that the MP had supported the increase of fuel prices to Ksh 195.53 through his vote in parliament, thereby affecting the cost of public transportation.
