He mentioned his libel case with Martha Karua where he was ordered to pay Ksh. 6.5 million over his derogatory remarks as an example.

Kuria, in his response to the story, said that Ndung’u was simply getting back at him after he turned down his “demand” for a bribe a few days before it was published.

The Kenyans on Tweeter didn’t quite seem to agree with Kuria, with one specific Twitter user by the name Ben Ogola replying to his tweet with a thread of incidences when Kuria has unleashed his “acidic” tongue.
