She alleged that the United Democratic Alliance party distributed approximately 500,000 T-shirts and 500,000 caps during President William Ruto’s tour of the region, describing the exercise as extensive and highly coordinated across multiple venues.
According to her, the distribution was part of a broader mobilisation strategy aimed at boosting visibility and support for the President during his engagements in various constituencies across Mt Kenya.
Wangari further claimed that despite the alleged large-scale issuance of branded items, only a very small number were later seen being destroyed by opposing youth groups in protest.
She specifically alleged that only 10 T-shirts and 10 caps were publicly burned, an act she described as symbolic and aimed at rejecting the political messaging behind the visit.
Her remarks have since circulated widely, generating debate among political commentators and members of the public on the credibility and significance of the figures she presented.
However, no independent verification has been provided to confirm the alleged distribution or the reported destruction of the political merchandise mentioned in her claims.
Political parties in Kenya frequently use branded clothing and items during rallies and presidential tours as part of mobilisation efforts and voter engagement strategies.
In previous political events, large quantities of campaign materials have been distributed, although official parties rarely disclose exact numbers of such merchandise.
The allegations by Wangari add to ongoing political conversations about campaign spending, mobilisation tactics, and public reactions during high-profile visits in the Mt Kenya region.
