Nominated senator Millicent omanga has denied claims that she jumped over Kasarani police station fence on Wednesday night.
A photo doing rounds in social media shows a woman on top of the fence with netizens claiming that it must have been Omanga.
It is claimed that she jumped over the fence after causing disturbance at the police station forcing officers to unleash dogs.
“Disregard the propaganda about me jumping over Kasarani police station fence. It is an idle rumor worth no one’s attention,” she tweeted.
Omanga went ahead to say that she is not able to go over such a fence.
“Sincerely, how can I jump, over anything, let alone a high fence, without Kenya experiencing earth tremor?” Omanga tweeted.
Kasarani police officers also dismissed claims that the woman in the photo was senator omanga.
According to Kasarani OCPD Peter Mwanzo, the senator did not visit the station on the day the photo was taken.
“I suspect the allegations are founded on a political rivalry that has, of late, gone online,” said Mwanzo.
“Neither the senator nor her relative was booked as a detainee or visitor at the police station,” he added.
Mwanzo further said that the person who started the rumor that the police had unleashed dogs wanted to ruin the officers reputation.
“The person who started the rumour that we unleashed dogs on the senator is bent on tarnishing police officers’ reputation. We are professionally trained and are skilled at handling all manner of people accused of law infringement,” he said.
However netizens are still not convinced that it was the senator on the photo. One follower went ahead to prove the point with some evidence.
“But Mhesh…these two dresses resemble each other,” she wrote.
Another follower went ahead to ask the senator to take it slow as she is not the first honorable person to do so while another one claimed that deny everything and will soon be denying their names.
