A photo of the DP has caused a stir in the past two days after Weitethie MCA Julius Macharia was arrested for displaying it on his matatu.

Mr Macharia was arraigned in court and charged with driving an unroadworthy vehicle as well as improper use of national emblems.

The charge for the unroadworthy vehicle saw him released on a Sh20,000 bail but he was later rearrested and charged afresh which attracted a five-day detention.
