A comment from Kakamega Senator Boni Khalwale, who is running for Kakamega governor in the next election, has caused a buzz on social media.
The comments made by Khalwale was as a result of an argument on Twitter, that is seen as an attack at women. He posted:
"Excuse me. Did u expect me to make your mother pregnant for you to know that am a performer?" Khalwale posed on Twitter on Thursday.
