Singer Karuga Kimani, widely known as KRG The Don, has taken to social media to respond to Kilimani Member of County Assembly Robert Alai's recent comments calling him broke.
In an Instagram story, KRG fired back at Alai, denying any involvement with retired lawmakers or being financed by them to flaunt cash online.
"All former MPs are broke, watatoa wapi pesa ya kupea bughaa. Robert Alai I thought your big head had some senses kumbe ni uji tu ndio umebeba ndani ya hiyo longonya yako ama unadhani mimi ni Ringtone?" KRG retorted.
KRG, who refers to himself as 'Bughaa,' urged Alai to focus on serving his constituents in Kilimani and refrain from targeting public figures like him.
