Health CS Mutahi Kagwe on Saturday asked people to boycott irresponsible politicians’ gatherings for posing infection dangers, as the highest number of infections hit 688. The CS castigated senior and junior politicians in the country for allegedly leading by bad example by holding gatherings against the government’s directions where some have not been wearing masks and not maintaining social distancing. “It’s very irresponsible for some of our politicians who are supposed to show the people how to protect themselves from the virus and instead have been holding the gathering and violating the health rules,” Kagwe said. “They hold those meetings because you go to them but if today you decline to attend they won’t convene them again. It’s a pity to see the politicians behaving wrongly while you already know some have been positive of the virus and infected other people,” Kagwe added.
