Karua was responding to a statement by a curious voter who asked her to reconsider her political stand.
“We swept your polling station after you stepped in! UDA is a tsunami mum. Even though I like your principles and love your bravery and courage, you went contrary to the expectations of many by supporting the BBI founders and hustlers discriminators. After our win, rethink,” the Twitter user told Karua.
