Despite his reputation for bold political stances, Mumias East MP Peter Salasya has admitted that he faces a relatable challenge: the “butterflies” of romance. In a candid Instagram update, the lawmaker revealed that his grand plan to marry four wives is currently at a standstill, citing a mix of professional dedication and personal bashfulness.

Shyness vs. Political Ambition

Salasya, who has been vocal about his desire for a large, polygamous family, confessed that approaching potential partners is proving more difficult than campaigning for office.

“I will marry four wives, but among those four, I should find at least one from Wanga. Unfortunately, I don’t have one in mind yet,” he shared. The MP explained that when he is on the ground, he is often too engrossed in his legislative duties to focus on dating, adding, “I am so serious with work and shy at the same time to approach one. Fear is just a disease on its own.”

Cultural Roots and Past Heartbreak

The youthful legislator often links his marital goals to the traditions of the Wanga community, where polygamy is an established cultural practice. However, his path to the altar has been anything but linear.

Salasya has previously opened up about a significant heartbreak in 2017, when a long-term relationship ended following his unsuccessful first bid for Parliament. He noted that the split occurred during one of the most difficult periods of his life, a trial that has since shaped his criteria for a future partner.

The Search for the “Ideal” Partner

Since entering the 13th Parliament in 2022, Salasya’s search for a wife has been a recurring topic of public interest. He has even sought the advice of prominent figures, once jokingly asking Mama Ida Odinga to help him identify a suitable spouse.

While he remains one of the country’s most eligible bachelor politicians, Salasya’s latest admission suggests that even for a “naturally polygamous” man, the first step—making the approach—remains the hardest part of the journey.

In his trademark candid style, Mumias East Member of Parliament Peter Salasya has hinted that the time has come to find a partner to help manage his household. Speaking after hosting a delegation of women at his rural home on Tuesday, March 24, 2026, the lawmaker suggested that his residence is ready for a “welcoming” presence.

A House in Need of a Matriarch

The conversation was sparked by a visit from local women who gathered at the MP’s home for a prayer session. In a video shared on his social media, Salasya is seen engaging the group in a lively exchange in the Luhya dialect, receiving blessings for his ongoing work in improving local schools and the constituency’s educational infrastructure.

Reflecting on the visit, the MP noted that while he was grateful for the prayers, the event highlighted a missing piece in his domestic life.

“Today, women came to bring prayers to my house. I think this house ought to have a wife, at least to be welcoming guests,” he stated.

The Challenge with Modern Relationships

Despite his openness to marriage, Salasya expressed a specific reservation regarding modern dating dynamics. He voiced concerns over the tendency of some women to monitor their partners’ every move, using the phrase “bamba to bamba” to describe a level of constant surveillance he finds stifling.

“But girls of nowadays just want to live with their husbands ‘bamba to bamba’,” he remarked, suggesting he values a degree of independence within a union.

International Connections and Polygamous Plans

This isn’t the first time the lawmaker has touched on his romantic future. Earlier in March 2026, Salasya revealed that his social circle is already actively helping him scout for potential partners across borders. He mentioned a former university colleague from Garissa and a friend from Madagascar who have both promised to introduce him to suitable matches.

Salasya has been open about his intention to embrace his roots in the Wanga kingdom by pursuing a polygamous lifestyle.

“I am a polygamous man, naturally from the Wanga kingdom,” he previously shared, indicating that once he begins his marital journey, he intends to marry multiple wives.

For now, the MP remains focused on his “medical camp” initiatives and school upgrades, but his latest comments suggest that the search for a Mrs. Salasya—or several—is officially gaining momentum.

Mumias East Member of Parliament Peter Salasya has reaffirmed his intentions to embrace a polygamous lifestyle, revealing that his search for a spouse has now extended beyond Kenyan borders to the island of Madagascar.

In a statement shared via Instagram on Tuesday, March 11, 2026, the outspoken legislator explained that his social circle is actively assisting him in his quest to find suitable partners.

Global Connections and Cultural Roots

Salasya disclosed that a friend from Madagascar has promised to facilitate a match with a bride from the island nation. The MP noted a cultural affinity with the region, pointing out that the Malagasy people share Bantu roots and speak a language he finds reminiscent of Swahili.

The lawmaker framed his marital ambitions as a return to his heritage, stating that polygamy is a natural inclination rooted in his identity as a man from the Wanga Kingdom. He expressed a desire to begin marrying as soon as he is ready to settle down, with a vision of eventually having up to three wives living harmoniously under one roof.

The Long Road to the Altar

Despite his political success and high public profile, Salasya has remained single, a status he attributes to past personal challenges. He has been candid about a significant relationship that collapsed following his unsuccessful first bid for parliament in 2017, an experience that he says shaped his current expectations for a life partner.

Since his election to Parliament in 2022, his search for a “prayerful and supportive” wife has been a recurring theme in his public life. His criteria for an ideal partner include r a prayerful spouse, someone comfortable with the demands of his career.

Seeking Mentorship

Salasya’s pursuit of a family has occasionally seen him seek high-level advice. He previously made headlines by publicly requesting Mama Ida Odinga’s assistance in identifying a suitable candidate for marriage. While he continues to navigate the complexities of modern dating and political life, the MP remains steadfast in his goal of building a large, multi-wife family in accordance with his cultural traditions.

Mumias East Member of Parliament Peter Salasya is taking on a new role in civic education with the launch of the PK Salasya Leadership Academy, an initiative aimed at mentoring aspiring politicians ahead of the 2027 general elections.

The first-term legislator announced that the academy will officially launch on 15 March and will serve as a training platform for Kenyans seeking elective office — from grassroots leadership to top national positions.

Preparing Aspirants for 2027

According to Salasya, the academy’s curriculum is open to a wide range of political hopefuls and is not limited to any single level of government. It will cater to aspirants eyeing the following positions:

• Members of County Assembly (MCAs)

• Members of Parliament (MPs)

• Women Representatives

• Senators

• Governors

To maximise accessibility, the academy will offer free online lessons, adopting an open and distance learning model. This approach is intended to reach participants across the country, particularly those who may lack the financial means to attend conventional political training programmes.

“Join the class by 15th March,” Salasya said, adding that the academy seeks to demystify his approach to politics.

Lessons Drawn from Defeat

The academy is grounded in Salasya’s own unconventional political journey, which he frequently cites as proof that failure can be a powerful teacher.

In the 2017 general election, his first attempt to win the Mumias East parliamentary seat ended in a resounding defeat, with just 254 votes. He says the experience exposed him to the harsh realities of Kenyan politics and helped him learn from his mistakes.

Armed with those lessons, Salasya successfully contested the seat in 2022, emerging as one of the most outspoken and recognisable figures in the current Parliament.

Roots in Activism

Salasya’s political journey began well before his parliamentary win. He previously served as a student leader at Egerton University, where he was first introduced to organised leadership and activism.

Outside campus politics, he was also known for philanthropic work in Nakuru, particularly initiatives supporting street children.

He describes the leadership academy as a tool to make politics more accessible to ordinary Kenyans, emphasising a grassroots approach that prioritises performance, direct engagement, and independence from traditional political machinery.

As the 2027 elections draw closer, the academy reflects a growing trend of politicians using digital platforms to expand their influence and shape the next generation of leaders. Participation is open to anyone interested in learning what Salasya calls his unique, people-centred style of campaigning

Mumias East Member of Parliament Peter Salasya has once again stirred social media conversation by revealing his unconventional plan for domestic life. In a candid update shared on Tuesday, January 13, 2026, the legislator declared that he has no intention of building separate homes for his future spouses, opting instead to house three wives under a single roof.

Reflecting on the financial toll of his current construction project, Salasya admitted that the building has significantly drained his resources.

“This house has really drained my finances. I won’t build any [other] house,” he wrote.

He explained that all three women he intends to marry will reside in the property as one large family, though he humorously noted that he has yet to identify who the lucky three will be.

To ensure order and privacy within the household, the MP detailed a specific vertical living arrangement. According to his plan, each wife will be assigned her own dedicated level of the home: one on the ground floor, the second on the first floor, and the third on the second floor.

“Mmoja ground floor, wa pili first floor, third second floor,” he stated, adding that he would then summon them individually to his quarters.

He framed this approach as being consistent with his identity as a traditional, polygamous Luhya man.

The MP’s quest for a partner has been a matter of public record since late 2025. During a high-profile gathering at Opoda Farm on November 7, 2025, Mama Ida Odinga publicly responded to Salasya’s appeal for her to help him find a suitable bride. Addressing the crowd, Mama Ida promised to take the request seriously, jokingly telling the “daughters of Raila” that she would conduct a thorough vetting process.

Salasya maintains that his “one-house” policy is both a cultural choice and a strategic financial move. By centralizing his future family, he believes he can avoid the immense cost of multiple properties while still providing each wife with her own distinct space. As he nears the completion of his home, the lawmaker seems ready to transition from builder to family man, one floor at a time.

Mumias East Member of Parliament Peter Salasya has opened up about a painful health scare that left him requiring surgery — all caused by a long-standing habit of biting his nails and trimming them with a razor blade.

Salasya revealed that he developed a severe abscess on his finger, which doctors traced to poor nail hygiene. The infection became so serious that it required a surgical procedure to drain and treat it.

“It Led to a Surgical Operation”

Sharing details on social media, the MP admitted that his own grooming habits were to blame.

“For those of us who don’t cut our nails properly — using razor blades or biting them like me — now look, it has led to this surgical operation.”

He described the procedure as extremely painful and urged his followers to avoid similar habits.

Post-Surgery Photo

Salasya also posted an image showing the aftermath of the operation. In the photo, he wears a light short-sleeved shirt with a blue-and-white pattern while holding up his heavily bandaged right index finger. The thick white gauze, secured with medical tape, highlights the extent of the treatment. His expression appears serious, underscoring the gravity of the ordeal.

A Commitment to Better Hygiene

The MP has since vowed to change his ways.

“Today I’m buying a nail cutter. I’ve refused to bite my nails — the pain I’ve felt and the abscess that was removed, let’s leave it at that.”

He ended his message with a touch of humour, referencing his athletic participation in the ongoing EAC Inter-Parliamentary Games in Uganda and joking about needing to stay in top form.

Mumias East Member of Parliament Peter Salasya has shared a series of endearing new photos of his rapidly growing son, expressing immense joy and pride in the boy’s development and striking resemblance to him.

The photos, posted by the politician, clearly show the cute three-month-old with his thumb in his mouth, highlighting his healthy growth.

In his accompanying caption, Salasya affectionately noted his son’s increasing size and humorously urged the boy’s mother to bring him home for a haircut. He even joked about canceling his presidential campaign to ensure he’s present for the moment his son gets his hair shaved.

Salasya beamed with pride over the boy’s resemblance, reflecting on his first casual meeting with the child’s mother. “Aki ka boys kamenifanana imagine it was my first meeting with his mother. It was just jokes and waaaaah kumbe inakuwanga tu hivyo kiurahisi,” he wrote, hinting at the unexpected ease of conception.

The politician also shared a personal ambition, blessing his son and stating,

“I bless this boy as the father my dream was one day I will be the father of 12 children, but nilichelewa.”

Salasya is yet to reveal details on the mother of her son.

Mumias East MP Peter Salasya has shared an emotional glimpse into his personal life by introducing his baby boy to the public for the first time.

The youthful legislator, who quietly welcomed his son a few months ago, had until now kept the child out of the spotlight. But on Wednesday, June 12, Salasya took to Instagram to post a heartwarming video of his baby dressed in a blue onesie, peacefully resting on a bed.

The brief clip captured the infant smiling—an endearing moment that touched many of his followers. Salasya couldn’t hide his pride, noting how closely the baby resembles him. From skin tone to facial features, the MP joked that a DNA test wasn’t necessary.

“Mapua ya huyu mtoto ni ya Waluhya,” he quipped in the caption. “Ni mweupe kama mimi huyu. Aki huyu hata DNA sitaki. Nimekubali.”

He also expressed his wish to have the child taken to his rural home to undergo a traditional hair-shaving ceremony, in line with Luhya customs.

Salasya shared that he met the child’s mother during the Gen Z protests last year, suggesting that their bond formed in the midst of activism and national unrest.

The video quickly drew reactions online, with fans congratulating him and pointing out the baby’s resemblance to his father. Comments ranged from light-hearted jokes—“Copy-paste kabisa”—to speculation about how fatherhood may have mellowed the outspoken MP. “Nowadays ametulia—makes sense now!” one fan wrote.

However, some followers voiced concerns about posting images of such a young child online. “Please Peter, mtoe huyu kiumbe online bado mdogo sana. Wachawi online ndiyo wengi,” one user cautioned. Others urged him to formalize things with the baby’s mother, discouraging promotion of single parenthood.

Salasya’s revelation comes just months after he addressed his relationship status during a February 2025 interview on Radio Jambo, where he made it clear he wasn’t pursuing romance despite interest from admirers.

“I want to tell them to remain calm and patient. You might desire me, but actually getting me is where the challenge lies,” he joked.

He explained that his schedule—split between parliamentary duties in Nairobi and constituency work back home—left little room for romantic commitments.

“I am very busy. Sometimes I’m in Nairobi, other times I’m at home. I’m always on the move, organising things for the people of Mumias East,” he said.

Salasya reaffirmed that marriage is a sacred institution that demands full attention—something he believes would currently distract him from delivering on his promises.

“I’m the only one allowed in my constituency not to marry for now because I have a lot of work to do,” he said, citing ongoing projects like roads, schools, and other infrastructure.

Still, the MP hasn’t ruled out settling down in the future. In his typical humorous style, he hinted that he plans to marry three wives—when the time is right.

On Sunday, March 23, 2025, a dramatic and troubling incident unfolded at Nyayo Stadium in Nairobi during Kenya’s World Cup qualifier match against Gabon. Mumias East Member of Parliament (MP) Peter Salasya found himself at the center of a violent altercation, attacked and forcibly ejected from the stands by a group of unidentified individuals. The chaotic scenes, captured on video and widely circulated online, have sparked outrage and condemnation across Kenya. In the aftermath, Salasya has broken his silence, delivering a powerful and defiant response to the assault, while alleging it was a premeditated act aimed at silencing him.

The Incident: A Day of Football Marred by Violence

Salasya, a vocal and outspoken legislator known for his grassroots connection with constituents, had joined thousands of Kenyans at Nyayo Stadium to cheer on the Harambee Stars in their crucial match against Gabon. Dressed in an AFC Leopards jersey, the MP was initially welcomed as a prominent figure rallying fans to support the national team. However, his presence quickly turned into a target for aggression.
Videos of the incident show Salasya being confronted by a group of assailants, some of whom hurled objects, including a trash bin, at him. Amid the chaos, shouts of “Heshimu Rais” (Respect the President) and “Heshimu Raila” (Respect Raila) echoed from the crowd, hinting at a possible political motive behind the attack. The situation escalated rapidly, forcing Salasya’s security team and police to intervene, escorting him out of the stadium to safety as the angry mob pursued him to the parking lot.
The attack occurred against a backdrop of heightened tension at the stadium, with reports of anti-government chants like “Ruto must go” reverberating through the stands. Salasya, a known critic of both President William Ruto and opposition leader Raila Odinga, has often found himself at odds with political factions, which may have fueled the hostility directed at him.

Salasya’s Defiant Response

Speaking out on Monday, March 24, 2025, Salasya addressed the incident with a mix of resilience, gratitude, and a stern warning to his attackers. In a video shared on his Instagram page, the MP recounted the harrowing ordeal, asserting that the attack was a calculated move to intimidate him. “What happened yesterday was planned,” he stated. “I was the one who told people to come to Nyayo. I was the leader who first made a statement about the game at Nyayo before any leader did. They took advantage of that; they knew I would be there.”
Salasya emphasized that he attended the match unarmed and without heavy security, intending to enjoy the game and unite Kenyans through football. “Football brings people together as a country, so I did not bring bodyguards, just a friend to enjoy the game and support,” he explained. However, he alleged that he was closely monitored from the moment he arrived, with individuals tracking his movements and hurling insults before the physical assault began.
Despite the violence, Salasya highlighted his restraint, noting that he chose peace over retaliation. “They wanted to kill me. I had options, but I chose peace,” he said, adding a cryptic warning: “Next time, I will consider other options.” In a separate statement posted on X, he went further, claiming divine protection and predicting dire consequences for his assailants. “You can’t beat an anointed leader and go scot-free. Give two months to those goons, and all will have perished like flowers. It’s not me who will do it, but God protects His servants,” he declared.
The MP also expressed gratitude to Kenyans for their overwhelming support, pointing to the massive online response as evidence of his popularity. “I want to start by thanking Kenyans for standing with me. On my Facebook account, when I posted about what I went through, within a short period, it had over 1.5 million views. That means Kenyans love me. I was trending everywhere—on Instagram, X, and TikTok,” he said. He interpreted the public’s reaction as a sign that “Kenyans watch and they judge,” suggesting that the attack would not silence him but instead amplify his voice.

Political Undertones and Broader Implications

While the exact trigger for the assault remains unclear, the chants targeting Salasya’s perceived disrespect toward President Ruto and Raila Odinga point to underlying political tensions. Salasya has been a polarizing figure in Kenyan politics, often clashing with both the ruling Kenya Kwanza coalition and the opposition Azimio la Umoja. His refusal to toe party lines—evidenced by his rebellion against voting for the impeachment of former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua—has made him a target for criticism and, apparently, physical aggression.
The incident has drawn widespread condemnation from political leaders across the spectrum. Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi labeled it an “unfortunate” display of political intolerance, urging Kenyans to embrace dialogue over violence. Trans Nzoia Governor George Natembeya echoed this sentiment, warning that such acts threaten Kenya’s democracy and could set a dangerous precedent. Saboti MP Caleb Amisi called for those responsible to be held accountable, emphasizing that freedom of speech and expression, as guaranteed by the Constitution, must be protected.
Salasya himself hinted at a broader conspiracy, claiming he had identified the culprits behind the attack. “Kenyans are waking up soon, and if you dare do anything to me, it will cause a big problem in this country,” he warned in a post on X, promising a full statement to shed light on the orchestrators.

A Call for Unity Amid Chaos

The attack on Salasya overshadowed what should have been a unifying moment for Kenyans—supporting the Harambee Stars in their World Cup qualifying campaign. The MP lamented that the violence could have resulted in injuries among spectators or even the postponement of the match, underscoring the need for civility in public spaces. “It could have caused many lives at Nyayo Stadium and maybe postponed the coveted game Kenya vs. Gabon,” he said.
As Kenya grapples with rising political polarization, Salasya’s ordeal serves as a stark reminder of the fragility of democratic discourse. His response—defiant yet measured—reflects both his personal resilience and the broader challenge facing the nation: fostering unity and tolerance in the face of division. Whether his prediction of divine retribution comes to pass or not, one thing is clear: Peter Salasya is not backing down, and the incident at Nyayo Stadium has only amplified his voice in Kenya’s turbulent political landscape.

Mumias East MP Peter Salasya has sparked political discussions after hinting at a possible run for the presidency in 2027. The outspoken legislator made the announcement during a recent public event, expressing his ambition to take on the country’s top leadership role.

Salasya’s Declaration
Salasya, known for his charismatic and energetic political style, stated that he is considering joining the presidential race to provide fresh leadership and a youthful perspective on governance. While addressing his supporters, the first-term MP emphasized his commitment to addressing issues affecting ordinary Kenyans, such as unemployment, economic growth, and youth empowerment.

“I believe the time has come for a new generation of leaders to take charge of this country. If the people support my vision, I will not hesitate to vie for the presidency in 2027,” Salasya declared.

Public Reactions and Political Landscape
Salasya’s announcement has elicited mixed reactions from Kenyans, with some applauding his boldness while others remain skeptical about his chances against seasoned political figures. Given that he is still serving his first term as an MP, many question whether he has the political experience and national appeal needed for the presidency.

His potential bid comes at a time when the country’s political arena is already witnessing early alignments, with key figures positioning themselves for the 2027 General Election. Analysts suggest that Salasya’s entry into the race could shake up the dynamics, especially among young voters seeking alternative leadership.

His Political Journey
Peter Salasya rose to prominence after winning the Mumias East parliamentary seat in 2022. His grassroots approach and ability to connect with ordinary citizens have made him a popular figure in Kenyan politics. Since taking office, he has been vocal on social issues, advocating for better governance and economic reforms.

Despite being relatively new in national politics, his confidence in vying for the presidency reflects his belief in the power of youthful leadership and change-driven politics.

What Next?
While Salasya has not officially declared his candidacy, his recent remarks indicate he is seriously considering the move. If he follows through, he will join an already competitive race, going up against established political heavyweights.

Whether his ambition materializes or not, his declaration signals the growing trend of young leaders stepping forward to challenge the status quo in Kenya’s political landscape. Only time will tell if Salasya’s vision resonates with the electorate ahead of the 2027 elections.

Mumias East Member of Parliament, Peter Kalerwa Salasya, has addressed the growing interest from women on social media, advising them to exercise patience. In a recent interview on Radio Jambo’s Gidi na Ghost morning show, the youthful legislator emphasized that he is currently not available for romantic relationships.

Salasya highlighted his dedication to parliamentary responsibilities and expressed that he is not in a hurry to pursue a romantic partner. He stated, “I want to tell them to remain calm and patient. You might desire me, but actually getting me is where the challenge lies.”

Salasya Shares His Unconventional Views on Wealth

The MP, known for his humor, hinted at his ambitious political goals, including aspirations to become Kenya’s President, which leaves him with little time for personal relationships. He explained, “I am very busy. Sometimes I am in Nairobi, other times I am at home. I am always on the move, traveling from one place to another to organize things for the people of Mumias East. This is because I want to become the President of Kenya. That’s why I aim to be the number one hardworking MP in Kenya.”

Salasya clarified that he is not ready for marriage at this time, as his primary focus is on serving his constituents. However, he encourages young people in Mumias East to marry to help reduce promiscuity and crime in the area. He noted, “Marriage is a matter for God. I told the people of Mumias East that all young people who have reached the age of marriage should marry because everyone in the constituency must have responsibilities. The troublemakers are usually those who are not married.”

For himself, Salasya believes that marrying now could distract him from his duties. He stated, “That’s why I said that, for now, I am the only one allowed in my constituency not to marry. This is because I have a lot of work to do. I am an MP who found my people in a very bad state, and I must fix all those issues.”

He added, “If I get involved with women, or even marry, I will lose focus. I have said that I must first organize the constituency, ensure children go to school, build schools, roads, bridges, and everything else.”

Looking ahead, Salasya revealed plans to marry at least three wives in the future.

Mumias East MP Peter Salasya has shared his unique perspective on money, likening it to flowers in his life. The first-term legislator, while discussing his upcoming football tournament, acknowledged the challenges involved in organizing such an event and sought divine assistance to ensure its success.

Salasya highlighted the tradition among Kenyan politicians to host football tournaments during school holidays as a way to engage the youth, discourage delinquent behavior, and foster voter support. However, he admitted that pulling off a successful tournament requires significant financial resources.

“Hosting a successful tournament is no easy task. God, I pray for Your help. The budget is high, but who is God? He will make it happen. To me, money is like flowers,” Salasya wrote on Instagram. The PK Salasya Classic Cup kicked off on December 1 and will conclude on January 1.

Reflecting on his journey, Salasya, 35, recounted his humble beginnings and financial struggles before his 2022 electoral win. He recalled times when raising bus fare to travel from his village to Nairobi was a challenge, often bargaining to lower the cost from Sh. 800 to Sh. 650 to save money for essentials.

“I never imagined that one day I’d board an airplane as casually as a public service vehicle,” he said, marveling at how far he has come from his days of traveling on buses like Basi la Matunda or Eldoret Express. Salasya’s reflections serve as a testament to his perseverance and faith in overcoming adversity.

Mumias East MP Peter Salasya is seeking advice on handling blackmail involving compromising photos and videos from women. In an Instagram post on October 27, 2024, Salasya expressed frustration over an increasing trend where women secretly record intimate moments and later use these as leverage for money.

Salasya explained that these women often send “view once” messages on WhatsApp, showing men in compromising situations, then demand large sums—up to Ksh300,000—to avoid making the images public. He questioned the best way to address this type of blackmail.

“These girls take photos and videos while you’re asleep, then send them as ‘view once’ on WhatsApp, asking for 300k to avoid releasing them. How should one handle this?” he asked.

Salasya has frequently made headlines with his search for a life partner, notably pursuing high-profile figures like Huddah Monroe, with whom he had a social media exchange after she declined his interest. He also once showed admiration for content creator Azziad Nasenya, who politely turned him down. Although some women have shown interest, he has yet to find someone who shares his values.

Recently, he shed light on his search, explaining his desire for a partner who embraces both ambition and a traditional lifestyle. He finds that many women in Nairobi prefer city living, while he seeks someone open to rural life. Friends have suggested he date a teacher or banker, given their busy lives.

Adding to his perspective, he said, “Many girls today want to stay in Nairobi, but I want someone who can live in the village. Someone even suggested a teacher or banker—someone with a busy schedule who won’t cause stress.”

In another recent revelation, Salasya shared that he would not date a virgin, feeling the responsibility too challenging. He would prefer a partner with prior experience, saying that rural men like himself are better suited for this than city men, whom he views as less resilient.

“The type of woman I wouldn’t want is a virgin. If I realize she’s a virgin, I would let her gain experience elsewhere first. We village men are more capable than the city men in such matters,” Salasya stated.

Mumias East Member of Parliament, Peter Kalerwa Salasya, is appealing directly to Generation Z. Urging them to endorse him as their voice in Parliament. In a video posted online, MP Salasya pledges to champion their concerns and ensure their issues are addressed at the highest levels.

Kama hakuna Azimio, the opposition called Gen Z should nominate me as their representative in Parliament so that mimi nikue opposition mimi ndio narepresent matakwa ya wananchi wako pale chini, na nitapigana sana nitakua searious mpaka mambo yenu isikizwe,

MP Salasya stated emphatically.

His call comes in response to recent developments where members of his party have aligned with the Kenya Kwanza Government led by President Ruto. A move that has prompted him to seek support from Generation Z to maintain their independence from such political shifts.

Lakini mambo ya Azimio, Mambo ya Azimio ishakufa Azimio ishakufa mimi ndio nawaambia…kwa sababu hata Raila ashaingia kwa Government.

Peter Salasya remarked, emphasizing the changing political landscape in Kenya.

Salasya elaborated that with Kenya’s political dynamics evolving rapidly and Generation Z lacking clear leadership, it is crucial for them to nominate him as their representative. He views this as their best chance to have a dedicated advocate in Parliament who will prioritize their interests.

While commending Generation Z for their activism, Salasya also urged them to act swiftly in supporting his candidacy.

Netizens across social media platforms have united in a concerted effort, sharing contact details of their respective MPs in a bid to dissuade them from supporting the finance bill scheduled for passage on June 14th, 2024.

Among the shared numbers are those belonging to President Ruto and Mumias East MP, Peter Salasya, who expressed frustration earlier today over the influx of calls and messages from Kenyans who obtained his contact information online.

Salasya took to Instagram to voice his exasperation, stating,

“Who has shared my number on x everybody across the nation is calling my number, texting me, and WhatsApping me. I can’t sleep; the phone is vibrating throughout. They say I reject the finance bill tomorrow and they are sending me one shilling via M-Pesa to confirm if it’s me. We are not voting tomorrow.”

The motive behind this widespread sharing of contact details is to encourage constituents to reach out to their MPs and urge them to oppose the Finance Bill 2024.

Reports indicate that thousands of contacts have been made public on various platforms, exposing not only the President and his deputy but also governors, women representatives, and numerous Members of Parliament.

Prominent figures such as Amerix and others have been actively advocating against the passage of the Finance Bill 2024, fearing its potential to burden the common citizen with excessive taxation, effectively rendering them slaves to government levies.

Controversial Mumias East MP Peter Salasya has declared his intention to marry multiple women, asserting that he possesses the financial capacity to support them.

Taking to his Instagram page, Salasya ignited discussions among netizens by expressing his contemplation of marrying more than two wives. He attributed his decision to the current chilly weather, suggesting that he might wed one wife this year and another the following year.

“This cold weather is beginning to make me contemplate marrying one wife this year and another next year,” Salasya wrote.

The MP, known for his controversial opinions and online scandals, asserted that he is financially equipped to care for his wives.

“I must marry more than two wives; I have enough resources to provide for them,” the MP concluded.

Here are some reactions from Kenyans to his post:

DCI officers launched a manhunt in response to the legislator’s alleged threats to assassinate Kakamega Magistrate Gladys Kiama, for which he was sought.
The member of Parliament allegedly endangered the magistrate’s life, according to a report she submitted at the station. The magistrate oversees the Small Claims Court.

This was the outcome of her choice to have Salasya pay back a loan owed to businessman Robert Lutta in the amount of 50,000 Kenyan Shillings.
The businessman claimed to have given the MP a loan on December 13 of the previous year, and he filed a case to get the money back through a KCB bank account.
The Law Society of Kenya (LSK) and the Kenya Magistrates and Judges Association (KMJA), among other institutions, have denounced Salasya and asked the DCI to look into the claims as soon as possible.

Kakamega County police have launched an investigation into claims that Mumias East Member of Parliament Peter Salasya threatened to kill a magistrate after an unfavorable ruling in relation to a debt owed to a local businessman.

In a complaint filed at the Kakamega Police Station on Monday, November 27, Magistrate Gladys Kiama of the Kakamega Small Claims Court accused the MP of threatening to take her life following her order that he pay businessman Robert Lutta a debt of Ksh500,000 with accrued interest and court costs.

“At around 1230 hours while at Kakamega Law Courts, having delivered a judgment in a small claim matter vide case no. SSC E541/2023 against Hon. Peter Salasya, MP for Mumias East Constituency where he had been sued for failing to refund the money loaned to him by the claimant, he (Salasya) confronted her (Magistrate) outside the courtroom and threatened to kill her and then took off,” the police report reads in part.

The report further states that Salasya has since been making threatening calls and sending WhatsApp messages to the magistrate.

Police have confirmed that investigations have commenced and efforts are underway to arrest the legislator, who is still at large.

Background to the Case

In the case, Lutta, represented by lawyer Edwin Wafula, sued Salasya on October 23, alleging that he lent the MP the amount in December last year with the expectation of repayment within two months. However, Salasya reportedly became evasive and failed to honor the debt.

Police are urging Salasya to cooperate with the investigation and refrain from making any further threats or contact with the magistrate.
