On August 5, 2020, David Ndii sparked outrage with a tweet criticizing Kenyans over a COVID-19 tender involving a Kenyatta relative.
According to reports, the tender was worth Sh 84 million and involved the supply of masks.
However, Ndii's criticism was met with backlash, with many accusing him of being petty and out of touch with the reality of the pandemic.
Some argued that Ndii should focus on advising the ODM party on how to win the hearts of many in the 2022 Presidential elections, rather than criticizing Kenyans.
Others pointed out that there is no law in Kenya that bars President's relatives from doing business, and that the tender followed all laid down regulations.
Ndii's tweet was seen as an attempt to bring attention to the issue, but many felt that it was uncalled for and that he should apologize without delay.
