Rachel Shebesh slapped after scuffle in Governor Kidero's office

Nairobi Governor Evans Kidero has pleaded memory loss when questioned about an allegation that he slapped Women Representative Rachel Shebesh.

“I don’t remember and I have no recollection, I don’t remember slapping anybody,” he said Friday.

In an NTV video, Dr Kidero is seen slapping Ms Shebesh during a scuffle in his office.

“All I know is that my office was invaded by between 30-40 people led by an honourable Member of Parliament, a scuffled ensued in the process,” he said

In a show of solidarity, the Governor was sandwiched by a dozen County Assembly members including speaker Alex Ole Magelo.
