The PG was allegedly attended by over 100 MPs with photos of the colorfully dressed legislators being shared on social media.
The outspoken lawmaker has been a constant presence in the Hustler Nation events and led the United Democratic Alliance Kiambaa constituency campaigns which the party's candidate John Wanjiku won.
The 100+ leaders at the meeting signed a statement where they called out the handshake for distracting the government from performing its duties.
The statement also featured a breakdown of the 'bottom up' agenda and how it would improve the livelihoods of the 15 million Kenyans at the bottom of the pyramid.
