Kapseret Member of Parliament Oscar Sudi has slammed Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna after he questioned why President William Ruto was associating himself with individuals lacking academic credentials.
Speaking on Thursday, February 20 while appearing before Citizen TV’s Day Break show, Sifuna wondered why the President, who is a PhD holder, was hanging out with Oscar Sudi who he described as a class two dropout.
“I have never seen a PHD holder who hangs out with class two dropouts because doing so lowers the average intelligence to at least Class 8. They say birds of the same feather flock together how are you a PHD holder and you hang out with Sudi? Sifuna posed.
In a response to Senator Sifuna, Sudi said effective leadership requires more than academic credentials.
The Kapseret lawmaker argued that good leadership is a blend of intelligence and inherent qualities.

“Sifuna, while education is undeniably important, effective leadership requires more than just academic credentials.
“It's a blend of intelligence and inherent qualities, something that Wamunyoro's lapdog doesn't seem to fathom,” said Sudi.
The UDA MP went on to say he can’t be compared with Sifuna adding that his IQ is higher than the Nairobi Senator.
"Edwin Sifuna, you're saying Ruto is hanging out with Class 2 dropouts, are our voters graduates? Can you compare me with you Sifuna? Look for somebody you can compare William Ruto with, but not me. I'm in another class, you can ask about my history. You don't have even a quarter of my knowledge," he added.
