A bodaboda rider credited for playing a crucial role in the campaigns of Bomet Woman Rep Linet Chepkorir alias Toto has clarified reports that he was ditched by the young MP.
Speaking on Thursday, Gideon Cheruiyot denied dating the female MP saying theirs was just a work relationship that was focused on campaigns only.
He denied that their relationship once became romantic saying at no time did it ever reach there.
"Kuna vitu ambazo imetrend sana social media ya kwamba Toto ameniacha. Nataka sasa ni waambie kwamba mimi nilikua tuu nimejitokeza kumsaidia Toto kufanya campaign. Hiyo mambo ya relationship hatukufikia hapo. Kazi nilifanya ilikua volunteer tuu. Hiyo mambo ya relationship hatukuingilia," Cheruiyot said.
