Former Lugari Member of Parliament Cyrus Jirongo has slammed ANC leader Musalia Mudavadi for allegedly disowning his mother, the late Mama Hannah Mudavadi in the name of politics.
Addressing members of the public during a rally in Kitui on Thursday, January 27, 2022, Jirongo called out Mudavadi for referring to Rosebellah Jerono his stepmother, as his mother instead of the Woman who gave birth to him.
During a rally with Deputy President William Ruto and FORD - Kenya leader Moses Wetangula in Eldama Ravine, Baringo County on Wednesday, January 26, Mudavadi told the locals that he is their son since Rosebellah Jerono is from there.
"Politics is making you disown your own birth mother, Mama Hannah, to an extent that you begin referring to Rosebella Jerono, your stepmother, as your biological mother. That is childish and shameful!" Jirongo remarked.

The veteran politician further accused Mudavadi of betraying President Uhuru Kenyatta after he catered for Mama Hannah Mudavadi's funeral expenses.
"Uhuru took care of all expenses when Mudavadi's mother died. It goes against respect to abuse the person who helped you in your time of need. When you abuse Uhuru and his family, you are being disrespectful," added Jirongo.
The former Lugari MP took a swipe at the ANC leader, accusing him of contributing to the downfall of Kenya's economy.
"You have heard that YK92 was responsible for the country's economic collapse and I carried that cross for many years. You have no idea what really happened.
"Those who do not believe should do research. Go and investigate whether the house that my friend has been living in at Riverside was not owned by Kamlesh Pattni."
Jirongo also criticised Mudavadi's alliance with Ruto noting that it was embarrassing for him to be lecturing Kenyans about corruption while working with the deputy president.
