A fresh political storm has erupted in the Rift Valley after remarks by Mogotio MP Reuben Kiborek, perceived as undermining the legacy of former President Daniel Arap Moi, have triggered sharp reactions from senior political leaders.

Allies of the late Head of State are accusing youthful politicians of disrespecting a leader they say transformed the region.

Kiborek, in a video circulating on social media, said Baringo County continues to lag in development despite consistently supporting successive governments since independence. He argued that in terms of development, Baringo could only be compared to counties that had never produced top national leaders.
