Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>Lurambi Member of Parliament, Titus Khamala, on Friday night, November 5, disclosed that he lives a humble life despite holding a legislative position since 2017 when he was first elected.<\/p>\n

In an interview, Khamala stated that he had no bodyguard, driver or security officers and that he preferred to do things by himself.<\/p>\n

Giving an example, the MP narrated how he had to park his vehicle at Parliament buildings and walk through the busy Nairobi’s Central Business District streets to attend an interview at NTV.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t have a driver or bodyguards. I don\u2019t need people to open doors for me. Ukishadunda kura wanaenda (If you lose the elections, all those people leave),\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n

He dismissed the popular believe that legislators have money and disclosed that he draws his salaries from Parliament and the church since he also doubles up as a Bishop.<\/p>\n

Khamala questioned how some politicians amassed so much wealth just years after being elected either to Parliament or in any other legislative position.<\/p>\n

“Unless the politician has inherited the property or had prior businesses, it would be questionable,” he stated.<\/p>\n

The lawmaker debunked the theory that politicians keep huge sums of money in their homes, a narrative he termed as misinformed and dangerous as crooks attack their houses in search of these monies.<\/p>\n

In July, unknown people ransacked Khamala’s home and took with them clothes and a 32 inch television screen. He remarked the intruders were very upset since they did not find any money.<\/p>\n

“The small amount of money that I have is what I use, but I do not have these huge bundles of money. I do not have,” Khamala stated.<\/p>\n
