Mary Kilobi Atwoli has blasted controversial former Cabinet Secretary for Sports Rashid Echesa over his Sunday remarks.

Rashid Echesa while attacking Atwoli mentioned his 2nd wife, Mary Kilobi, saying he knew her before the Central organization of Trade Unions (COTU) Secretary General.

“Mary ananijua zaidi kushinda Atwoli (Mary knows me better than Atwoli),” he said.

Echesa was speaking in a Kenya Kwanza Alliance at Amalemba Stadium, in Kakamega county, where Deputy President William Ruto’s team was popularizing his state house bid.

While responding, Kilobi blasted Echesa for what she said is “disrespectful! and totally unacceptable”

I’ve said this and i will say it again. I am a Journalist and not a politician, not even once have I seemed to have taken sides while discharging my duty. Its is not right and will never be that politicians find it pleasant to keep mentioning my name in rallies.

Mary also warned politicians for getting at her husband through her, something which has been witnessed before.

Attacking Kilobi for trying to get back at my Husband is Cowardly! Just for clarity as a journalist, I have interacted with many news sources but not even once have i with one Rashid Echesa, only have i seen him in our Kajiado home. I’ve never even had his phone number!

The angry Kilobi asked politicians to sell their agenda without having to drag people through the mud.

You may not even have respect for people who have helped you in life like SG Atwoli not even for the President of Kenya but there’s a Supreme Power above you that will make you know that he owns the Universe. Agosti 9 yaja, Wadau uzeni Sera! Endelea kunijenga! Profiter de ma Vie!

DP Ruto side has been fighting SG Atwoli for his endless prediction of August polls. Atwoli is of the opinion that DP Ruto is not worthy of a leader and will not defeat former Prime Minister and ODM leader Raila Odinga.
