Former Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i has sparked fresh political debate after sensationally claiming that government-linked individuals secretly approach him at night “like Nicodemus in the Bible.”
Speaking during a political engagement, Matiang’i suggested that some leaders publicly criticize him during the day but privately seek meetings and conversations behind closed doors.
🗣️ THE VIRAL “NICODEMUS” REMARK
In the now-trending statement, Matiang’i said:
“Wanakuja kuniona usiku kama Nicodemus wa Biblia…” 🔥
