Former Kibwezi Member of Parliament Richard Kalembe Ndile has spoken out moments after multiple death reports surfaced online.
While speaking to local Kamba journalists, the man infamous for having eked a living from jumping onto moving lorries on Mombasa Road and looting goods onboard, said he was alive and well; condemning those responsible for the spread of the fake news.
Just June this year, Kalembe recorded a statement with police claiming that his life was in danger.
While addressing a press conference in Nairobi, the ex-politician said he was accosted by unknown individuals in a Machakos County government vehicle who threatened to break his leg if he did not stop antagonising Governor Alfred Mutua.
“A man in a white pick-up vehicle with county government number plates approached me and told me to move from Mlolongo or else they will break my other leg,” said Ndile, who previously suffered a broken leg in an accident two years ago.
