In a video shared by K24, the resident reminded the President of promises made during his campaign visits to the area, lamenting that instead of progress, they now face the horror of death and sorrow.
"Rais unatupigania ama tukupige? Hatuogopi kuongea... Wakati wa kudanganyanan uliisha. Ma wewe mwenyew kwa campaign zako nikikumbuka ukija eneo la Kware ulituahidi mengi. Lakini tuna nini? majonzi, machungu! Miili. Inanikera! Hainifurahishi. Angalia mwenzangu pale chini. Anarisk maisha yake kusaidia mwenzake yule ambaye ashakufa.
"(We are not afraid to speak out. The time for deception is over. During your campaigns, you promised us much. But what do we have now? Grief, pain! Bodies. It infuriates me. It doesn't bring me joy)," the man stated emphatically as others supported his sentiments in the background.
