“Bure Kabisa!” has been the most outstanding backlash received by one of the social media user claiming that Hon Murkomen is flaunting new notes while Marakwet County is languishing in poverty.

Kipchumba’s character has been described as obsessive has he has been talking about the new currency day in day out avoiding the plight of Maize farmers. The Arrow and Kimwarer Dam Scandals have also been sucked into Hon Murkomen’s bragging with the new notes.

Although some other on line users have been lenient with Senator Murkomen, begging the Governor to send some money to them bearing in mind it’s a Party Friday.

Although Murkomen posted in good faith, saying its a good start, one user has asked him if it’s the start of looting.

The new currency has been clouded with a lot of controversy with most legislatures siting the breach of the constitution in the minting of the new coins. The statue of Mzee Jomo Kenyatta being the source of the controversy behind the new notes.

The Central Bank of Kenya has been firm on the issue of the New Currency stating that the minting process followed all the required constitutional guidelines.
