A man from Kakamega has accused Mumias East member of parliament Peter Salasya of defaulting on a loan of Ksh. 165,000 while working with Diamond Trust Bank back in 2017. The man by the name Polycarp Nyonje claimed that he acted as a guarantor together with other two members. 


Nyonje claims his efforts to reach the MP have been futile even after visiting the National Assembly. He went further to state that Mr. Salasya does not respond even on social media accounts.

Below is a full post from Polycarp Nyonje:


“I'm Polycarp Nyonje from Kakamega and l want to expose Mumias East Constituency MP, Hon. Peter Salasya. 


In 2017, Hon @P_Salasya took a Sacco loan of Ksh 165,000 while he was working with Diamond Trust Bank, Kakamega Branch. I acted as his guarantor, together with two other members. He immediately defaulted on the loan and each time we spoke in person, or on the phone, he kept on promising that he would repay it. He continued to promise us that he would repay, right up to the time he became a member of parliament. 


I approached the National Assembly 

@NAssemblyKE

 and the office of the Ombudsman 

@KenyasOmbudsman

 but didn't get any help from either. I have tried engaging Salasya on social media platforms but he never responds. Our hard-earned savings were debited to the tune of Ksh40,821. This affected our borrowing power in the Sacco. When I try to reach him nowadays, he doesn't respond to my calls, or even texts. I also approached his party, DAP-Kenya Party but they didn't assist us.  





I'm seeking your help to reach out to this man so that he can realise that he has really subjected us to financial constraints, as he lives large.”- As received via DM. #SemaUkweli
