Kiharu MP Ndindi Nyoro on Wednesday, November 11, blatantly called out Tanzanian President John Pombe Magufuli terming his leadership as dictatorial and ego-driven.
Nyoro took to social media to express his disdain towards Magufuli's style of governance. He also drew comparisons between Magufuli and villains such as Adolf Hitler and Sadam Hussein.
Nyoro further slammed Magufuli for being insecure despite winning the elections convincingly. He advised the leader to accept constructive criticism.
"Majority have had their way, the minority must be given space to have their say.
"The entire world must condemn what is happening in Tanzania. A leader who won with the margin that was reported should have no business intimidating others," he ranted.
Nyoro also pointed fingers at the East African Community (EAC), chaired by Rwanda's President Paul Kagame, and the African Union AU) for their public silence on the matter.
No sooner had he ranted than netizens took to social media to respond to the MP. They questioned Nyoro's involvement in another country's issue while neglecting issues surrounding Kenya.
"Why are you so concerned with Tanzania when our own country is riddled with corruption?
"Before you cross the borders to pour out your usual crocodile tears and extend your search for sympathy votes, kindly be honest with Kenyans.
"Instead of posting... why don't you cross the border and ask him those questions directly...then you can give us feedback.
"I think Kenya we have enough problems to make us mind our own business unfortunate we have very idle MPs and leaders," read some of the comments.
Recently, two Tanzanian politicians fled the country following the announcement of the Presidential elections in which Magufuli won 84% of the vote.
Former Arusha Urban Constituency MP Godbless Lema and his entire family had sought refuge in Kenya. Reports indicated that Lema fled Tanzania for fear of his life. Lema was arrested after arriving in Kenya through the Namanga Border but was later released.
Tanzania's Opposition Leader Tundu Lissu also left Tanzania on Tuesday, November 10, and sought refuge in Belgium. He claimed that he sought political asylum in the European nation over threats to his life after he challenged the election results.
