Nominated senator Karen Nyamu was among the attendees of the highly anticipated Kamba Festival held at the Carnivore grounds yesterday.
However, things didn’t go as planned for her, if the videos circulating online are anything to go by.
The footage shows Karen, dressed in an orange top and denim trousers, standing at the podium and attempting to greet the crowd in Kamba when the atmosphere quickly turned sour, and boos filled the air.
The senator was unable to deliver her message as the booing intensified, with more attendees joining in and even going as far as chanting “Ruto must go.”

This incident comes just weeks after the senator took a jab at Gen Z, calling them foolish and accusing them of not knowing what they want or where they are headed.
Her comments were in response to the ongoing anti-government protests spearheaded by this demographic, which persisted even after the government appeared to bow to some of their demands.
