Kiminini MP Chris Wamalwa has dismissed claims that he is misusing tax payers' money in Rio after a picture of his 'look-alike' started doing rounds on social media. Various captions have accompanied the photo, including: “Kenya is well represented at Rio Hon Chris Wamalwa become the first Kenyan to strike Gold at the Rio Olympics ama hii ni medal gani?”But Wamalwa denied 'living it up' during the ongoing Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Duale was responding to a tweet accompanying the photo that read: "While Julius Yego was struggling to get his ticket to MPs like Chris Wamalwa enjoying themselves in Rio." The photo elicited reaction from National Assembly Majority leader Aden Duale who accused Wamalwa of lowering the dignity of the house. "Yego saga was just a hiccup that may occur any any organisation, MPs have a right to enjoy themselves," @kahukamau said.
