William Ruto’s allies have started a campaign to boycott Citizen TV after the station covered the chaotic scene in Naromoru where the DP convoy was stoned by angry youth.
Citizen TV on Sunday air a clip of irate youth shouting as Ruto’s convoy made its way through Naromoru town in Nyeri.
The angry residents are seen trying to block Ruto’s convoy as they shouted and threw stones at vehicles.
While addressing resident at a different location within Kieni constituency, Ruto claimed the irate youth were paid to attack his convoy.
Ruto allies have since called on his supporters to boycott Citizen TV for reporting on the drama in Naromoru.
The allies claimed Citizen TV was biased and maintained that the report on Naromoru chaos was exaggerated.
“I advise the Hustler Nation to desist from watching Citizen TV Kenya . They are taking us back to the dark days of KANU and KADU where biased news was a norm. We can update ourselves using alternative sources like social media platforms. No one is nolonger interested in watching mainstream media anymore. It’s time we support each other by consuming news from credible sites on social media,” Kapseret MP Oscar Sudi said.
“Citizen TV Kenya is the latest member of the Githeri Media Group(GMG). I see Citizen TV Kenya has 4M likes. I’m urging all the hustlers to click the dislike button. Acha tutembeze viatu maze,” added Kimilili MP Didmus Barasa.
