Murangâa Woman Representative Sabina Wanjiru Chege has challenged  Wazir Benson Chacha, a 23-year-old man who conned dozens of lawmakers to produce evidence of videos and photos of alleged loving making with the lawmaker.
Earlier, the Director of Criminal Investigations Mr George Kinoti told a parliamentary committee that the MP had a âspecial relationshipâ with Mr Chacha, who appeared in court on Tuesday for the mention of the charges.
Speaking on Hot96 Wednesday morning, the lawmaker, who has been at the centre of controversy over the fleecing of hundreds of cash from fellow MPs, Ms Chege said that she has never had any contact with Wazir Benson Chacha.

âWith the kind of relationship we are talking about, if Chacha had videos, he would have released them,â said Ms Chege, who said that she has never had any contact with the man.
She added: âIâm waiting. Because, let me tell you, I will not be intimidated. When I spoke about it in Parliament and I asked the Speaker that I needed to make a personal statement, one, it is because I can tell you I have never had any personal contact with Chacha.â
It is understood that the accused man has been flaunting her phone to a number of police officers claiming that he was protected by MPs, whom he said has had love affairs with, running into tens.
Mr Chacha is in police custody for faking Ms Chegeâs identity and later using it to con lawmakers hundreds of shillings.
Justin Muturi conned Sh300,000
Chacha is said to have conned National Assembly Speaker Justin Muturi, former Gem MP Jakoyo Midiwo and Public Service Cabinet Secretary Prof Margaret Kobia, claiming âsheâ was seeking Sh6 million for treatment in Australia.
âI needed to come out and say, âI am not sickâ. Number two, I am not asking for any cash. Number Three, beware,â she told Jeff Koinange on Hot96.
âFor me, what I really needed to achieve I have achieved,â said Ms Chege.
She said she was disappointed at the turn of events since she made the complaint in Parliament and the matter was taken up by the Administration and National Security Committee.
âJeff, Iâm still young. I donât need a Ben 10, and if I need a Ben 10 I will not look for Chacha. Thatâs one thing Iâll tell you. Iâm happily married and I have children,â said Ms Chege, who added the name Maitu to her official names in 2017.
The Woman Rep hit the roof in Parliament two weeks ago when Directorate of Criminal Investigations head George Kinoti said there was âa special relationshipâ between the complainants and the suspect. Ms Chege was angry at the interpretation that she was the one implicated in the relationship.
Mr Chacha was arrested in Tarime, Tanzania over the weekend, resting at a hotel before heading to Zanzibar, where he had paid Sh648,000 in a hotel to live there for 10 months.
He was brought back to Kenya, where he is now facing charges of obtaining money by false pretenses. Police say they are investigating Mr Chacha for conspiracy to defraud, obtaining money by false pretenses, intent to defraud and impersonating a civil servant.
