Kenyan MP Causes Storm in US for Posting Inaccuracies on Kamala Harris Campaign
Homa Bay MP George Peter Kaluma has drawn criticism from both American and global media for sharing incorrect information about US Presidential Candidate Kamala Harris and the Democratic Party’s campaign.
Kaluma recently announced his visit to the United States, where he is actively supporting Republican Presidential Candidate and former President Donald Trump due to his conservative views.
The MP has been quite vocal on social media, where he has been promoting Trump’s candidacy vigorously.
In one post, however, Kaluma shared a misleading image of Dan Boyle, the Mayor of Cork, alongside participants of a recent nudist cycling event, falsely suggesting it was related to his reasons for supporting Trump.

In a tweet dated September 11, Kaluma expressed his shift from supporting the Democrats to backing Republicans, accompanied by a photo of painted naked cyclists, attributing his decision to what he perceived as the Democrats’ decline.
Kaluma has cited this incident as a primary reason for his support of Trump and his decision to campaign for Republicans.
The World Naked Bike Ride (WNBR) event in Ireland, where the image was taken, occurred in Cork on August 27.
The misleading posts have garnered attention from media outlets in both the US and Ireland, who have criticized Kaluma for spreading false information to undermine Kamala Harris’ campaign.
As he campaigns for Trump, the ODM MP has labeled Kamala Harris as insincere, underscoring his support for Trump.
Interestingly, last year, Kaluma also launched a campaign in Kenya targeting the LGBTQ community, proposing severe penalties, including life imprisonment and, in some cases, the death penalty for same-gender activities.
