Edwin Sifuna Lectures Boni Khalwale On His Mastery Of English: "You'll Struggle To Teach Me"

• Nairobi senator Edwin Sifuna said challenged Kakamega senator Boni Khalwale to produce his academic certificates from Musingu High School
• He also thanked Khalwale for accepting that the police were to blame for the injuries sustained during the protests, unlike other Kenya Kwanza leaders
• Sifuna and Khalwale were engaging in a debate on police response to anti-government protests that had been called by Azimio

Nairobi - Debates between Kakamega senator Boni Khalwale and his Nairobi counterpart Edwin Sifuna are always exciting for most Kenyan viewers.

The former allies in the now-defunct National Super Alliance (NASA) always have insightful discussions accompanied by moments of comic banter.

Khalwale never misses the opportunity to take a swipe at Sifuna, who always answers with an equal dig of his own.

Sifuna questions Khalwale's English

On Thursday, July 27, the lawmakers had a discussion on Citizen TV on the conduct of the government in dealing with protesters during the anti-government protests.

While addressing Khalwale, Sifuna put his counterpart's English mastery in doubt, telling him that he would have a hard time teaching him how to speak the King's language.

Sifuna pointed out that Khalwale has been boasting about having scored highly at Musingu High School but has never produced his results for comparisons.

"Khalwale, you will struggle to teach me English. You have said you did better than me in Musingu, but you have refused to produce the results so that I see yes, you got an A or maybe you got AAA. I don't know whatever it is you did in your old days," he said.

The legislators are arguably brilliant in their own rights, with Khalwale being a licensed doctor and Sifuna, a practising lawyer.

Sifuna appreciates Khalwale

The lawmaker was also full of praise for Khalwale, who had earlier accepted that it was the police who brutalised Kenyans in the streets.

However, Sifuna pointed out that he differs from a Khalwale since the lives wouldn't have been lost if the men in blue followed the law.

"I like you on one thing only this morning that you have acknowledged separate from other people in Kenya. Kwanzaa that, in fact, it is the police visiting violence on the innocent who you called collateral, our only point of departure, Khalwale, is that none of these people needed to die," he added.

Sifuna's tough warning to Kenya Kwanza

Earlier, Sifuna warned the ruling Kenya Kwanza administration against intimidating and harassing former president Uhuru Kenyatta, saying that what goes around comes back around.

Sifuna told President William Ruto, his deputy Rigathi Gachagua and Interior Cabinet Secretary Kithure Kindiki to pray to their God that they remain in power forever "because the seeds that they have sowed will eventually reap them."

"We have had a history in this country whereby we didn't go after retired presidents. We didn't see the sort of revenge and vindictiveness from a regime like what we are witnessing now. In the past, people would just be elected and proceed to serve the electorate," Sifuna said.
