Senator Millicent Omanga has broken her silence after Bevalyne Kwamboka, a trader in Nairobi, dismissed claims that she had received a cash donation from her team.
Early this week, Senator Omanga put out a tweet indicating that her team visited Bevalyne business premise and provided her with stock, cash, and other material to support her business.
However, in a statement on Thursday, Bevalyne, disputed the claim stating that she had not received any cash from Omanga’s team.
“For clarification, team @MillicentOmanga only bought waru za 350 came out of the vehicle with 5 umbrellas, took photos returned them and gave out one and two aprons. Hiyo mambo ya cash haikua plus stock ni ya 350. Hizo waru gunia kubwa i had bought and started the day,” she tweeted.

Responding to Bevalyne, Senator Omanga seemed to suggest that the trader might have had high expectations that she didn't meet.
"My team visited her & brought back positive report. I made a tweet to that effect to which Kwamboka acknowledged. I'm thus disturbed to learn that she has complained and rubbished the support she got through my office.
"I did my best under the circumstances and I'm sorry that I didn't meet her expectations which appear to have been higher. In such situations the truth, honesty & facts are sacrificed at the alter of social media fame, blackmail & character assassination. I wish Kwamboka success & good fortunes as she grows her business," the Senator tweeted.
