Dadaab Member of Parliament Farah Maalim has denied allegations that he advocated for the "slaughtering of Gen Z" during the anti-tax protests.
The MP who has been under fire dismissed claims that he called for the butchering of the youth saying that does not reflect his position.
"I never called for the death of any Kenyans. I didn’t and I will never call for it," he said in a video on his X page.
Maalim said that he is a leader of integrity and will not compromise the reputation he has carefully built over many years.
"I am a very honest person for over 30 years of have been in the politics of this country. I am one person who has had a track record that is matched by very few people," he said.
Maalim said that he would do what he believes is best for the country according to his conscience.
"I came in as an opposition MP in 1992 through Ford Kenya when everybody else in the region was in KANU. I stuck by my principles and my philosophy and that has never changed," Maalim said.
Maalim maintains he is still popular among the people who voted for him.
"When it comes to votes, I will go back to my constituency. Everybody knows my popularity on the ground. You don’t have somebody who has been here for 30 years who gets elected again now. But I am there and I will come back until I decide to retire," Maalim said.
This comes after a video went viral of him allegedly saying that if he was the President he would slaughter 5000 Gen Z on the day irate youth breached Parliament Buildings.
“God forbid, if I the President which God hasn’t given me, I would have slaughtered them, 5000 of them daily, serious,” the MP is accused of saying sop.
He, however, said the video was edited and does not represent his position.
