Alego Usonga Member of Parliament Samuel Atandi has sparked debate after warning members of the public against climbing onto his vehicle, stating that he would not be held responsible if his armed security officers opened fire in response.
Speaking during a public engagement, Atandi cautioned that individuals who hang onto his car risk provoking his security detail into taking action if they perceive a threat.
"If my armed security officers shoot you for hanging on my car, just know that I won't be held responsible," Atandi said.
The legislator's remarks come amid heightened political tensions and increased security concerns during public gatherings, where confrontations between politicians and members of the public have occasionally occurred.
His comments have since drawn attention online, with supporters and critics debating the conduct of public officials and the role of armed security personnel during political events.
