Mutahi Ngunyi, a prominent political analyst in Kenya, has faced criticism for referring to the Luo community as 'poverty-stricken' on his social media handle.
Ngunyi is reportedly the lead consultant of a think-tank involved in managing President Uhuru's re-election campaign.
His comments sparked a strong reaction from Kenyans on Twitter (KOT), who condemned his remarks as tribalistic hate speech.
A team of lawyers is reportedly taking action against Ngunyi, aiming to demonstrate the consequences of attacking a leader with a significant spiritual following on social media.
Kenyans on Twitter expressed their discontent with Ngunyi's comments, responding with various reactions.
