Handlers of a governor from Western Kenya have devised a smart method of silencing bitter critics of their boss on social media.
According to our sources, the governor’s aides have, in the past one month, been zeroing in on those opposed to his leadership.
After identifying the critics, an invitation to join the Governor for dinner is extended to them.
Those who have jumped to the opportunity and defied to keep quiet have ended up regretting why they accepted the invitation.
This is because the same aides then leak 'sensitive' information on social media, giving a list of who ate with the Governor.
A number of those who had no kind words for the county leadership and who partook of the meal have mellowed, after finding themselves with egg on their face.
