Hussein Mohamed denied claims that ODM MPs skipped a meeting with President William Ruto at State House. 

ODM Secretary General has hit out at State House Spokesperson Hussein Mohamed after he denied reports that some MPs from the ODM party skipped a meeting convened by President William at State House Nairobi. 

In a statement on Wednesday, September 11, Hussein said a story published by a local daily indicating a section of ODM Mps skipped Ruto's meeting was misleading. 

The State House Spokesperson noted that President Ruto on Monday, September 9 inspected the progress of the 4,054-unit Kibera Soweto East Zone B Affordable Housing Project in Nairobi County and after the event, the MPs in attendance accompanied him to State House for an informal lunch.

He also alleged that State House communicates or invites MPs or any other individuals and groups through official channels.

"There was no formal meeting as suggested. State House communicates or invites MPs or any other individuals or groups through official channels only," said Hussein.

However, in response, Senator Sifuna said the State House Spokesperson was lying to the public on the issue.

“You are lying Omwami,” the Nairobi Senator responded to the statement by Hussein.
