Dagoretti MP John Kiarie has opened up about his scars. “When I was on the campaign trail, I was attacked by a gang of goons. Some opponents did not want me on the ballot paper, and they sent some goons because they wanted me dead,” he said during an Engage Talk called, ‘The scars I carry’.
“I was really beaten to a pulp. And before I passed out, these guys who had been surrounding me with these crude weapons, one of them attempted to hit my head, so I lifted my arm and the jembe stick hit my hand and it went limp,” he added.
The goons sent by political opponents left him with extensive injuries. The ex Redykyulass star and
former comedian, says he was attacked while campaigning for his seat as an MP.
